Zow Tlang is guarding the eastern horizon of Bangladesh and Myanmar border. In Bawm language the term Zow means Mizo (Mizo is derived from Mizoram, India. Probable reason is that Bangladesh was a part of greater India before 1947) and Tlang means Mountain. According to American and Russian topographic maps Zow Tlang is mentioned as Mowdok Mual. As per (Bangla Trek ), it is the second highest peak of the country; though it is not officially recognized by the government till date.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.banglatrek.org/?page_id=40 )〕 Many accomplished local adventurers describe this as one of the most wildest peak of Bangladesh. The peak was first summitted in 2005 by two Bangladeshi adventurers, Subrata Das Nitish and Bijoy Shankar Kar. The same team summitted the mountain again in 2007. The altitude couldn't be measured in these two expeditions as the team wasn't carrying any GPS device. On January 12, 2012, the peak was summitted for the third time by the Bangla Trek team members Tashdid Rezwan Mugdho, Tarikul Alom Sujon, Salehin Arshady & SM Mainul. Measured altitude and Geo location of the peak by their (Garmin eTrex 20 ) was 1021.69 meter and 21°40’23.78″N & 92°36’16.01″E.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.banglatrek.org/?p=983 )〕 Two of the team members, Mugdho and Sujon died in a tragic bus accident on their way back to Bandarban after the expedition. The other two members, Salehin and Mainul suffered serious injuries and it took them a long time to recover. On October 13, 2013, a team led by Shahzaman Chowdhury Hira became the third team to summit the peak at 1400 hrs. This team was having 6 members - Sharfaraj Hussain Jony, Sidratul Afia Mohona, Mahbubur Rahman, Abdullah Anas Oni and Baqui Billah Milon.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.panoramio.com/photo/116174483 )〕 Member of this team Mohona was the first woman ever to summit this very peak.
