On a Thursday in the high Karakoram, an avalanche on Broad Peak silenced the ambitions of an international climbing party, claiming at least three lives and leaving seven others unaccounted for in one of the most unforgiving places on Earth. Among the dead was American mountaineer Sarah Mallory Geis; among the missing, Nirmal Purja, whose record-breaking ascents had made him a symbol of human endurance. The mountain, the twelfth-highest on the planet, offers no easy reckoning — only the slow, dangerous work of those who descend to find what the snow has taken.
