All about the Mitre Peak Expedition.

Join the Mitre Peak Expedition as it sets off on an epic trip to conquer one of the most recognizable summits in the center of the Karakoram mountain range, which is located close to Concordia in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. The meeting point of the Baltoro Glacier’s branches is marked by the beautiful Mitre Peak.
