Disteghil Sar (mountain)

Japanese: ディステギル・サール[山](英語表記)Disteghil Sar
Disteghil Sar (mountain)
It is the main peak of the Distegir mountain range, which belongs to the Hispar Mustagh in the center of the Karakoram mountain range. It has an elevation of 7,885m, with the central and eastern peaks lined up on the east side. The name of the mountain means a snowy peak in the shape of a round stone wall used to enclose grazing livestock. It was discovered by the British explorer G. Cockerill in 1892, who explored the Shimshal River valley on the north side, but it cannot be seen from the Hispar Glacier side on the south side unless you enter the Khun Yang Glacier. A British team attempted to climb it from the Khun Yang Glacier in 1957, and a Swiss team in 1959, and an Austrian team succeeded in the first ascent on July 8, 1960.
