This season (summer and autumn) besides all the nice 8000m ascents which came a little late this year. Again! It is almost more normal than extraordinarily...Right? Himalaya autumn season has become unstable for sure.
In the somewhat lesser known area - mountains have in "their" season been a serious activity with great new ascents:
"Following 10 days spent on the spire's NW face; the first Russian route was reported on Nameless Tower (6239 m) in Pakistan. An American team bagged Saser Kangri II East (7,518m) and a Spanish team bagged Junai Kangri (6.017m) - both first ascents - in India. Field Touring Alpine successfully guided Satopanth (7.075m). New Zealand's Christine Byrch and Pat Deavoll forged a new route on Koh-e-Baba Tangi (6,516 m) in Afghanistan's Wakan corridor. Three Americans bagged Meru (6300 m) via unclimbed Shark's Fin route. Two young Slovenians, in their first Himalayan experience, took four days to carve a new route on K7 West (6858 m) in Pakistan."
