Spantik or Golden Peak is a mountain in Spantik
Sosbun Mountains subrange of Karakoram. Its northwest
face features an exceptionally hard climbing route known
as the Golden Pillar.It lies east of Diran and northeast of
Malubiting. The name Golden Peak is called so, because
of its Golden colour.
Spantik was first climbed in 1955 by Karl Kramer,s
German expedition. The most commonly climbed line
follows the south east ridge, which was attempted by
the Bullock Workman party in 1906. The ridge rises 2700
metres over a lateral distance of 7.6 km, at angles which
are mostly less than 30 degrees, with a few sections up
to 40 degrees. It contains varied terrain, from rocky
outcrops to snow and ice and scree.
