The English traveller Eric Newby and the diplomat Hugh Carless attempted to climb Mir Samir in 1956, as described in the humorous book A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush. GeographyMir Samir lies on the east side of the upper Panjshir Valley, Afghanistan and the border of Nuristan. It is about 90 miles (150 km) due north of the city of Jalalabad as the crow flies, and more practically about 100 miles (160 km) northeastwards up the Panjshir Valley from the town of Charikar. Until 1966, Mir Samir was thought to be 19,878 ft (6,059m) high,[1] but its height has been revised down to 19,058 ft (5,809m).[3] Afghanistan was surveyed by the British during the Second Afghan War of 1878–1880. However the surveyors had to work under fire, and were unable to cross the Hindu Kush. The surveyor Mr. Scott was able to climb the 15,620 ft mountain Sikaram in the Safid Koh, from where he noted to the north "a pyramid standing far above the heads of all the surrounding peaks of the Hindu Kush". The mountaineer Boleslaw Chwascinski writes that this was "most probably" Mir Samir.[1] MountaineeringIn his Travels in Afghanistan, Jason Elliot records that Afghan villagers believed that "Mir Samir could not be climbed by man", which was the reason that foreigners who had tried had not succeeded.[4] Eric Newby and Hugh Carless "almost climbed" to the top in 1956, as described in Newby's humorous A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush,[5] although in mountaineering terms their reconnaissance of the Central Hindu Kush was later dismissed as a "negligible effort".[3] For Newby, his first sight of the mountain "was awe-inspiring enough. Mir Samir, seen from the west, was a triangle with a sheer face."[5]{{rp|143}} Harald Biller, the leader of the 1959 Nürnberg Hindu Kush Reconnaissance expedition, climbed Mir Samir together with his wife and two companions on 24 July 1959, encountering Grade V rock pitches.[1] The mountain was believed at that time to be 6,059 metres high.[6] Biller's success was not only the first ascent of Mir Samir but "the first ascent of a great peak in Afghanistan."[1]{{rp|207}} Several unsuccessful attempts were made at a second ascent; the 1965 Hitotsubashi University H.K. Expedition, led by Jiro Amori, succeeded on 26 August 1965 using a new route.[3] In January 2012, an expedition under the auspices of the British Mountaineering Council attempted the first winter ascent of Mir Samir, but it was cut short by an equipment theft and deep snow.[7] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite journal | url=http://www.alpinejournal.org.uk/Contents/Contents_1966_files/AJ%201966%20199-214%20Chwascinski%20Hindu%20Kush.pdf | title=The Exploration of the Hindu Kush | author=Chwascinski, Boleslaw | journal=Alpine Journal | year=1966 | pages=199–214}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/520505/Mir-Samir | title=Mir Samir | publisher=Encyclopædia Britannica | year=2013 | accessdate=23 April 2013}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite journal | title=Development of Mountaineering in the Hindu Kush | author=Diemberger, Adolf; Merrick, Hugh (trans.) | journal=Himalayan Journal | year=1966 | volume=27 | url=http://www.himalayanclub.org/journal/development-of-mountaineering-in-the-hindu-kush/}} 4. ^{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1KtOL9-xoEkC&pg=PA173&lpg=PA173 | title=An Unexpected Light: Travels in Afghanistan | publisher=Picador | author=Elliot, Jason | year=1999 | pages=173}} 5. ^1 {{cite book | title=A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush | publisher=Secker and Warburg | year=1958 | author=Newby, Eric |authorlink = Eric Newby}} 6. ^Diemberger, Adolf; Merrick, Hugh (trans.), "Development of Mountaineering in the Hindu Kush".
