Broad Peak Avalanche Kills 10 Climbers: How Climate Change Is Reshaping Mountaineering |Planet Pulse

Watch this video as Firstpost explains why mountains are getting riskier for climbers due to climate change. A devastating July avalanche on Pakistan’s Broad Peak has claimed the lives of ten veteran mountaineers, including legendary British-Nepali climber Nirmal ‘Nims Dai’ Purja. The 8,047-meter peak, historically stable during mid-summer, experienced an unseasonable snow collapse that swept the elite expedition team down a sheer 1,000-foot slope at 6,600 metres. Purja, famous for scaling all fourteen 8,000-metre peaks in just six months and six days, succumbed to extreme alpine conditions altered by rising global temperatures. Experts warn that climate change is destabilising Western Himalayan and Karakoram snowpacks, triggering unpredictable disasters outside traditional winter months. Compounded by severe overcrowding in high-altitude death zones, extreme mountaineering faces a perilous shift where elite human skill and willpower can no longer outmanoeuvre a rapidly chaotic climate. Gursshheen Gahllen brings you all the details on Planet Pulse.
