Abdul Joshi (born 3 December 1984) from Shimsal is a Pakistani mountaineer who became the first climber in the world to summit the main 6,076-metre (19,934 ft) Passu Cones peak in Pakistan's Gilgit-Baltistan on 14 August 2021.[1] Abdul is known as the "Path Finder" amongst the local mountaineering fraternity for his talent for finding new, unclimbed routes.[2] He is also the first person in the world to cross the F.N./Joshi Pass and Verjerav Pass.[3] On 16 April 2021, Abdul became the first Pakistani to summit Annapurna, the tenth-highest peak in the world at 8,091 m (26,545 ft), along with his climbing partner, Sirbaz Khan.[4] On 16 May 2022, he became the 8th Pakistani to summit Mount Everest.[5]
Abdul started his mountaineering career as a high-altitude porter on 8,000 m (26,000 ft) mountain expeditions in Pakistan. He climbed his first peak, Manglik Sar (6,050 m [19,850 ft]), at the age of 18.[6]
Joshi once went up to Camp 3 (7,400m) of K2 (8,611m) when an avalanche swept their tents away and crushed their summit dreams. He has also been on a G2 (8,034m) expedition.[1]
Abdul has also been involved in multiple high-altitude rescue operations. In June 2019, Abdul, who was at Camp 3 of Passu Cones, only 500 m (1,600 ft) from the summit, received news of an avalanche that had hit an Italian-Pakistani expedition on Melvin Jones Peak (5,809 m [19,058 ft]).[6] Abdul abandoned his expedition and joined a four-member team to rescue the stranded climbers. On 12 September 2021, Abdul led a successful rescue operation on Rakaposhi to retrieve three stranded climbers, two of whom were Czech citizens climbing without permits.[7][8][9]
