At 16:00 on January 11, BIGPACK athlete Yann Delevaux (aka "Yan Deli Huosi") from France and Chinese climber Liu Zhixiong successfully reached the summit of the unclimbed Hunter Peak in Shuangqiaogou, Sichuan, China, with a measured elevation of 5,384m.
Hunter Peak neighbors Jianzi Mountain. The two towering peaks stand close together, with a huge stone pillar in between, reaching dozens of meters in height, shaped like a hunter standing with a gun, which is why people commonly call it Hunter Peak.

On January 10, a mysterious group of climbers arrived at the foot of Hunter Peak. They carried their own equipment and hiked to establish a base camp at an altitude of 4,300m. The next day, they split into two teams to attempt the summit. One team consisted of BIGPACK athlete Yann Delevaux and two Chinese partners, Liu Zhixiong and Chen Liji, while the other team included Brazilian Marcos and his Chinese partner. They set off from two different routes to climb the towering, unclimbed Hunter Peak, with a route length of 1,400m. Finally, at 16:00 on January 11, Yann Delevaux was the first to reach the summit, followed shortly by Liu Zhixiong. About half an hour later, Brazilian Marcos from the other team also successfully summited after tackling the final section of the route.
