White to move and draw

This position is actually from a real game. I will tell the names of both players, when it is solved.
It's whites turn, but he realized the Black king is too powerful. So he resigned. However he can get draw on a very thin path. The use of a standard procedure which has to be adjusted to the requirements of position, makes this one of my favorite puzzles. 🙂

Ke4?

this is the most obvious move

okay, but if you move Ke4 and offer draw, black will most likely not accept it yet 😉

White must take black's c-pawn and move his own c-pawn forward. A queen versus a c-pawn will be draw.

Ke4 Kxc2
Kd5 Kb3
Kxc5 Kxa2
Kb5 wins

or Ke4 Kxa2
Kd5 Kb2
Kxc5 a4
Kb4 wins

an a-pawn vs queen draws too
just saying

K-e4 Kxa2
K-d5 K-b2
Kxc5 -a4
K-d6 -a3
-c5 -a2
-c6 -a1Q
-c7

instead of Kd6 why not Kb4?

I don't see any draw. I just see variants where black wins.
