K2

Mountaineering drama. Taylor Brooks and Harold Jamieson find themselves fighting for their lives on the deadly slopes of the peak known as the 'savage mountain'.

During a climb in the sheer peaks of Alaska, two driven young mountaineers - brash and cynical Taylor Brooks and gentle Harold Jamieson - join a group preparing for a mammoth expedition to the mighty Karakoram mountain range in Northern Pakistan; home to K2 - the second highest and most feared mountain on earth.

Once there the team are soon facing setbacks and disaster, and Taylor and Harold ultimately find themselves fighting for their lives on the deadly slopes of the peak known as the 'savage mountain'.
