Baintha Brakk, widely known as The Ogre, is a steep and craggy mountain in the Panmah Muztagh, a subrange of the Karakoram in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan, rising to about 7,285 meters. It has a reputation as one of the hardest peaks in the world to climb: twenty-four years passed between its first ascent in 1977 and its second in 2001. This entity documents Baintha Brakk specifically as a geological formation, the Panmah Muztagh summit nicknamed The Ogre for its extreme difficulty.
