Trivor is one of the high peaks of the Hispar Muztagh, a subrange of the Karakoram range in the Gilgit-Baltistan of Pakistan. Its height is often given as 7,728 metres, but this elevation is not consistent with photographic evidence[1]. The height given here is from a Russian 1:100,000 topographic map[2].
There have been only two successful climbs of this peak; the first ascent was in 1960 by a British-American party[3].
