Re: Great Job

Makes you wonder why everybody goes to the same spots like sheep when there are so many other great parts. This mountain is quite well hidden so possibly less well-known than other 7000m mountains in the Karakoram

Right

There are some great spots everywhere around this range but most of the people prefer Hunza Valley mountains and Baltoro Region.Just all.Beyond Karakoram Hinduraj is located its very remote and very beautiful but noone bothers to visit this region you should try i must say.The peaks are of your types.Most of them are around 6500m.
