Ascent history
The Urdok I was climbed for the first time in 1975 by an Austrian expedition with Hanns Schell . This expedition actually had the Hidden Peak as its destination, but made a detour beforehand and climbed this seven-thousander. The team included Hanns Schell's wife Liselotte as well as Robert Schauer , Helmut Prevedel, Herbert Zefferer and Karl Hub. The way led them on the normal route in the ascent to Hidden Peak to Camp 3 and then on to Urdok I. On August 4, 1975 Hanns and Liselotte Schell, Robert Schauer, Herbert Zefferer and Karl Hub reached the summit. A few days later, on August 11th, Schell, Zefferer and Schauer stood on the summit of Hidden Peak (third ascent).
