At the top also the young and fast Jake Meyer who stopped a few days ago a few meters from the summit of Broad Peak. Also the super skier Adrzej Bargiel, supported by Janusz Golab, reached the top and made the first full descent on K2 skis.

No one had ever succeeded in the business despite several attempts in the past (also Kammerlander). The Furtenback Adventure expedition (along with Strang, Roske and leader Striemitzar), after the success on Broad Peak, will attempt the summit the following week.
