K2 is the second highest mountain in the world, at 8,611 metres (28,251 ft). It is also known as Mount Godwin-Austen or Chhogori.[2] K2 is part of the Karakoram range. It is located partly in China and partly in Pakistan.[3] The name K2 came from the first survey of Karakoram. At that time, the surveyors gave each mountain a simple label of "K" followed by a number.

K2 is known as the Savage Mountain as it is very hard to climb. It is considered to be harder to climb than Mount Everest.[4] K2 has the second-highest fatality rate among the eight-thousand-metre mountains. One person dies for every four who reach the top.[5] As of 2011, only 300 people have climbed to the top of the mountain. At least 80 people have died trying to climb it.[4] K2 has never been climbed during the winter.[6]
