Hi Guys,
i'm planning to go to Pakistan in july/august 2014, and try to ascent the Diamir face. I'm in contact with a Pakistan (well known and approved) expedition organization. They sent me detailed information about the possibility and option. They can provide a full package, including the logistics, summit fee's and permits for around 3700,- us dollar per person.
So, regarding the safety issues, i starting planning for the trip. But who wants to join? I'm not planning for a big commercial trip, but a few more people will make the trip affordable.
As i have said: safety is a big issue and is off great importance. The organization is addressing the authorities for a solution for providing safety on trips and locations where tourists stay, also for the remote area's.
If you are interested let me know.
