Road to Askole

Travelling towards Askole on Jeep is very interesting. It is more then 8 hours ( 87 kilometer ) ride from Skardu the capital city of Baltistan. Askole is the last vehicle-accessible mountain village on the Karakoram. This is the Pakistan’s highest 3050-M and remote village gateway to highest mountains and longest glaciers of the world. This village is very famous among mountaineers and trekkers.

A really excellent photo

It is nice to see the vehicles and people close up. It helps to feel like we are there, and right next to the Land Cruiser

A very nice perspective too. More like this would be great!
