Lino Lacedelli and Achille Compagnoni embrace one another on K2: they’re the first to ever climb the second tallest peak of the world. Conquering K2 is an athletic effort, but it’s also much more than that. It’s also an iconic moment, which touches the hearts of Italians right when they are rebuilding after the war. Because going to K2 is like going to the moon. 70 years later, this podcast tells the story of that adventure and the impact that K2 had on the national collective imagination as well as on an entire country that was trying to find itself right in that moment.

When they make it to the top of K2, Achille Compagnoni and Lino Lacedelli are the first people to set foot on the second highest peak in the world. They take pictures, they raise a flag, but they don’t have the time to celebrate, as they must immediately set off again to return to the base camp. K2 is a treacherous mountain, and many expeditions have attempted and failed to climb it: the Italian expedition succeeds thanks to the skills of its climbers and unprecedented technical support.
