Mountains on Instagram: "Mountain Month Day 20: The greatest mountains on Earth also have some of the best names on Earth, with one notable exception: K2. K2 is an odd name for such an awesome mountain, but the story behind how it got that name is super interesting. Essentially, the mountain is so remote that no local name existed for the mountain, so it kept the surveyed name it was given during the Great Trigonometrical Survey of India. Did you know how K2 got its name? #mountains #geography #
