Trivor is one of the high peaks of the Hispar Muztagh, a subrange of the Karakoram range in the Northern Areas of Pakistan. Its height is often given as 7,728 metres, but this elevation is not consistent with photographic evidence [http://www.viewfinderpanoramas.org/elevmisquotes.html#hispar Some Frequently Misquoted Elevations] . The height given here is from a Russian 1:100,000 topographic map [http://echidna.rutgers.edu/expeditions/Hispar/Default.htm Hispar area: expedition reports and maps] .

There have been only two successful climbs of this peak; the first ascent was in 1960 by a British-American party [http://www.alpine-club.org.uk/hi/ Himalayan Index] .
