Big wall is the nature phenomenon, a precipice which has a steep more than 70 degree and the length more than kilometer. There are 20 big wall in the world and Latok is one amount them. First attempt on the North Ridge of Latok-I (7145m). Frist Ascent of Latok-I was first climbed in 1979 by a Japanese expedition team led by Naoki Takada. Latok-I (7145) has finally been climbed after some thirty attempts by the team of Slovenian climbers Aleš Česen (36), Luka Stražar (29) and British climber Tom Livingstone (27) climbed three-quarters via North Ridge of Latok I (7145m) before traversing the West side and summiting through the original route on 9th August, 2018.
