In side karakoram

in #travels7 years ago

Trango Towers - it is a freestanding shaft culminating in the Trango Group, located on the left of Baltoro Glacier. It is the highest granite tower and considered as being the finest rock pinnacle in the world.

Concordia - This chaotic jumble of ice and rocks looks like amphitheatre rimmed by ice streams, descending from four highest MOUNTAINS of the karakorams ( K-2 , Gasherbrum - l, Gasherbrum -ll and Gasherbrum - lV ). The point tests on the junction of two great glaciers - Baltoro and Godwin Austin. Being at Concordia means being face to face K-2 (8,611 m), a real soul-stirring experience.628397.jpg
