Also called Gongga Shan (7,556 m, Sichuan), this is the most isolated 7,000ers! 🏔️
Heim's/Imhof ETHZ researchers were the first to measure accurately the mountain at ~7600 m 🗺️
Here is a view from 5,000 m toward the formidable west face with the Xiaogongba Glacier ❄️

Last year, a Chinese mechanic climbed to 7,000 meters alone with a homemade ice axe and borrowed mountaineering boots, but eventually gave up the climb due to strong winds.
