I think that's super cool, I've gone down the mountaineering rabbit hole a few times over the last year and it's always so insane to think about how effective and skilled these people are at high altitudes, providing porter services and being insanely good mountaineers (Nirmal Purja is absolutely incredible btw). I also have a really idolised image of K2 and people who have successfully climbed it in contrast with the rather commercialised status of Mt Everest and its comparative ease of climbing.
Unfortunately I haven't got the balls to ever go after the top end of mountaineering challenges (I'd like to try Ben Nevis someday though but I'm not the most physically fit person) but I really admire those who do, especially without oxygen etc, the concept of the death zone really frightens me.
