I recently saw a photo of Mustagh Tower in the Hymalaya. Does anyone know of any climbing history surrounding this amazing mountain? Who did the first ascent?

I rather board during lunch today, so I did a little digging...
Looks like the Brits Tom Patey, Joe Brown, John Hartog, and Ian McNaught-Davies made the first ascent of Mustagh via the Northwest Arete in 1956.
Mustagh wasn't climbed again until 1984. Andrew Greig's Summit Fever has an account of that ascent.
