Easiest route =Hunza Peak lies in the westernmost subrange of the
Karakoram range along with theLadyfinger Peak (Bublimating ). It lies on the southwest ridge of theUltar Sar massif, the most southeasterly of the major groups of the Batura Muztagh. The whole massif rises precipitously above theHunza Valley to the southeast.Bublimating , while having little prominence above the saddle with nearby Hunza Peak, is particularly notable for being a sharp, relatively snowless rock spire among snow peaks.This peak has at least two known routes, both climbed in 1991. Both routes where done in alpine style, the first by a Swedish expedition and the second by a British team, which included
Caradog Jones andMick Fowler .__NOTOC__
