Nick Russell, Jerry Mark, and Blake Gordon Make History in Papsura | Peak of Evil | Full Patagonia Film

Snowboarders Nick Russell, Jerry Mark, and Blake Gordon made history with the first snowboard descent of Papsura, the "Peak of Evil." Learn about their epic Himalayan adventure and new film.


Deep in the Indian Himalaya stands Papsura, the "Peak of Evil"—a towering 21,165-foot giant etched with a line so perfect it beckons only the most daring. The colossal face of Papsura has become legendary among ski mountaineers-- and an obsession for snowboarders Nick Russell, Jerry Mark, and Blake Gordon, who claimed the first ever snowboard summit of the peak last year. We chatted with Nick soon after their historic trip. You can check that out here.
