Chong Kumdang Ri II
Chong Kumdang Ri II is a formidable mountain peak located in the Ladakh region of India, part of the Rimo Karakoram sub-range in the western Transhimalaya. It stands at an elevation of 7,004 meters (22,979 feet) above sea level with a prominence of about 644 meters (2,113 feet).
This peak is part of the Chong Kumdang Ri massif, which includes Chong Kumdang Ri I, a slightly taller peak at 7,071 meters. Situated north of Mamostong Kangri, Chong Kumdang Ri II is notable for its challenging glaciers and difficult access routes, particularly due to large crevasse fields and rugged terrain. It has been the focus of mountaineering expeditions, though it remains less frequently climbed compared to neighboring peaks, with no widely recorded first ascent until recent years when teams have reached its summits following complex glacier and ridge approaches.
The mountain is known for its remote, icy environment, attracting experienced mountaineers interested in high-altitude expeditions in this less-traveled part of the Karakoram range.
