Looks like the valley ...

was carved by glaciers. Is the Indus suitable

Re: Looks like the valley ...

Thank you very much for your comments and vote. Pakistan's main river, 2896 Kms mighty Indus emanates in Southern Tibet and flows Northwest. Cutting through the Karakoram and Himalayas, it passes through Ladakh and Skardu valleys. It turns southward near Gilgit, separating Hindukush and Himalayas. It flows southward from Kalabagh and after meadeting through the plains of Punjab and Sindh disgorges its waters into the Arabian Sea near Karachi. The mighty Indus river posses great potential for white and wild sports. The rapids of mighy indus provide the ultimate adventure and thrill in mountain water sport and lend themselves to canoeing, Kayaking and whitewater rafting.
Best regards, Afzal
