      I had to pull out Google map’s topographic view for this. From base camp to peak, Rakaposhi is only 4,300 meters.

      However, if you measure from the Hunza river - which Rakaposhi directly descends all the way down to - the descent looks to be approximately 5,920 meters. That is interesting.
