High altitude with technical difficulty make it hardest to climb for alpinists. In 1978, an American expedition led by Jim Donini, Jeff Lowe, George Lowe and Michael Kennedy successfully summited few pitches of Latok. Later in 1979, a Japanese expedition led by Naoki Takada and few others summited Latok 1 but no one ever could climb the Latok 1 entirely. Latok 2 was summited by an Italian expedition in 1977 led by Arturo Bergamaschi. They climbed the Souteast face of the peak. Latok 3 again was summited by a Japenese expedition in 1979 led by Yogi Teraanishi.
