Shehroze Kashif, a well-known mountaineer from Pakistan, has successfully ascended Mount Cho Oyo, adding another amazing accomplishment to his resume.
The 21-year-old climber is on the approach of shattering a world record by attempting to become the youngest mountaineer to scale all 14 peaks higher than 8,000 meters.
After his recent notable ascents of Mount Everest and K2, this latest victory further enhances his rising reputation in the climbing community.
Shehroze successfully ascended Dhaulagiri, Nepal’s spectacular 8,167-meter mountain, earlier this year, which ranks as the seventh-highest peak in the world.
Shehroze, the second Pakistani to climb Dhaulagiri after Sarbaz Ali, broke the mark set by the Nepalese mountaineer Mingma Gyabu Sherpa at 30.
Shehroze Kashif stated in a media interview that he will make every effort to scale all 14 summits over 8,000 meters by the year 2023.
Naila Kiani, a Pakistani female climber, made history earlier this week when she became the first Pakistani woman to summit Cho Oyu.
