First victory on Gasherbrum I

15th of June Dodo Kopold and Vlado Plulik (both Slovakia) summited Gasherbrum I. They managed it from the saddle between GI and GII in one push in 16 hours (up and down, north face).
In 15 days from their arrival under the Gasherbrums they both climbed Gasherbrum I and Dodo climbed also the French pillar of Gasherbrum II (alpine style, the 9th of June, when Vlado finished some 300m under the summit).
They should move under K2 and eventually Broadpeak now and come home end of July.
