Chogolisa or Bride Peak is situated near the Baltoro Glacier in the Concordia region which is home to some of the highest peaks of the world. Chogolisa has several peaks, the highest on the SW face (Chogolisa I) rises to 7665 meters. The second highest at 7654 meters on the NE side (Chogolisa II) is the one named Bride Peak. In 1909, a party led by Duke of the Abruzzi reached 7498 m. Hermann Buhl and Kurt Diemberger attempted Chogolisa in 1957. In 1958, a Japanese expedition from Kyoto University made the first ascent of Chogolisa II. The first ascent of Chogolisa I was made on August 2, 1975 by Fred Pressl and Gustav Ammerer of an Austrian team.
Chogolisa is one of the most impressive and elegant peaks in the Karakoram. Its four ridges, of which three have already been climbed, culminate in the form of two summits. The peak is highly exposed to winds with deep snow.
