Upper Kitlod icefall

Kitlod Glacier (a.k.a. Qitlodi) is the gateway to Western Bezengi area from the West. The two icefalls are bypassed, the lower one on the South side, the upper one on the North bank morraine. From the the upper Glacial plateau, Semi Pass is the route normal to the Western terminus of Bezengi Wall, and to Tsanner Pass to Bezengi Glacier. Our little crew is recrossing the glacier from the South to North in this Augusr 1982 picture. Nashkodra Range rises in the near background.
