Climbing Kajaqiao

Kajaqiao. Yep. That's what the title says alright. Not a peak I'd ever heard of before. At least not before I read this awesome article over at the Alpinist, a magazine dedicated to Alpine Style climbing around the world. The article is written by Mick Fowler who had to spend two years optaining all the necessary permits and cutting through all the bureaucratic red tape just so he could climb this lonely, forgotten mountain in a restricted area of Tibet. The article is an awesome story to read about an epic journey to climb a mountain that no one else really knows, or seems to care about. Great stuff, with nice information about mountaineering in general.
