Stamina - Endurance
A mountain athlete needs endurance above any other specific fitness skill. Cardiovascular fitness is of course always subject to the movement (as climbing rocks or steep ice, you will not be able to transfer your triathlete or running fitness to mountains without being solid in the required mountaineering skills).

Due to the character of the true exploration, we will describe the itinerary in three parts:
We have 2 weeks that will consist of trekking to a remote basecamp (3-4 days), climbing as many alpine routes and peaks as possible (8-10 days), trekking back to Shimshal (2-3 days). With peaks around an altitude of 6000 meters, we do not need too much time for acclimatization and can start with climbing as soon as we arrive at base camp (of course, weather and conditions permitting).
We will finalize the goals with the team depending on skills and abilities. We can still alternate the area while in Hunza/Shimshal depending on the information available then, as conditions and weather. Here are the planned objectives of our future explorations:
Shuijerab Base Camp is a 4 days trek from Shimshal. Located at the start of two glaciers the base camp is surrounded by unnamed and unclimbed peaks of 6000m height. Beyond that, explorations to Yak Sar (6152m), Umeed Sar (6134m), Guustan Peak (6224m) are possible.
Base Camp is a 4 days trek from Shimshal. Yard Sar W (6090m) and M (6150m) were climbed in 2017, while Yard Sar E (6180m) remains unclimbed. Many unnamed peaks above 6000m unclimbed.
Base Camp is a 3 days trek from Shimshal. Koh-e-Dhaid (6105m) first summited in 2020, Charskin I summited and renamed Samina peak, Charskin II remains unclimbed, lots of potential for interesting new routes and other subsidiary peaks
Many of the peaks in the region have no ascents and are unnamed, some have been climbed a few times but still have potential for new routes at moderate difficulty. We can climb to the summit in a 1-day push from base camp or with lightweight high camp equipment or bivouacs for several days. This is an exploration, hence we can not give you details on an amount of peaks planed, and of course any alpine climb is highly dependent on weather and route conditions as well as your personal level of climbing. In one day we might traverse 3 peaks of 6000m height, or in 3 days fail to climb one at all - no success is guaranteed but we aim at climbing as much as possible!
The level of climb possible for you will be determined by your skills. Ideally, you join with a climbing partner, climbing partners, or plan to engage a local or international guide to climb with you.
Routes may vary in difficulties from AD- to TD+ (by French alpine scale). Participant’s skills will determine the choice of route and peaks. Independent alpine climbing is a requirement to join unless you book an extra personal guide for yourself.
