K2
"The Savage Mountain"
Grade 4
by Julie Giroux
K2, also known as "The Savage Mountain," sits on the border between Pakistan and China. It is the second highest peak in the world, with a peak elevation of 8,611 m (28,251 feet) and carries with it the second highest fatality rate of 27%. For every four people who attempt its climb, one will die. It has never been climbed in winter.
K2 is massive, beautiful and literally, can take your breath away. It calls to mountain climbers around the world with the song of a deadly Siren. Most heed its warning, but a few will not be thwarted. Seventy-three percent WILL make it to the very top and will come down changed forever. J.G.
