Nice pic, Karrar...

Is that Ultar in the background?

Re: Nice pic, Karrar...

Thanks for your kind comments and vote. Ultar peak is situated on the apposite side of this peak. These are Miar and Phuparash peaks.
The Hopar Valley is a scenic portion of the Nagar Valley "Shangri-La" of Hilton's "Lost Horizons" in northern Pakistan. It is about 10 km away from Nagar Khas, the principal city of the Nagar Valley. It is the site of the Spantik and Hopar (Hopper) glaciers. It is a cluster of villages around a natural bowl at a bend of Bualtar Glacier. Opposite Hopar the whiteBualtar is joined by the Barpu Glacier. This is a base camp for treks into the high, glacier-draped peaks called the Hispar Muztagh.
