Yak Ride over the Darkot Moraine

The Darkot pass is not the easiest but the shortest way out of the

Bhoroghil Valley in Chitral. The path follows first the moraine for

three hours before reaching the glacier. The way down the other side

to the Yasin valley is very steep. It took us 14 hours to cross the

pass with the help of yaks and porters. Thank you all. Karl

I always wondered what it was like up there. Must have been an amazing trip. Thanks for sharing, Karl.

This is quite impressive! The people are well placed just off the center and the silhoutted forms atop the mountain heads in the sky is fantastic. The view is impressive and panoramic works well. Incredible location my friend, this is a pleasure to share. Cheers, Gerhardt

Fantastic - wish I had been there...

I have

Duri, you ARE there!

Dramatic, these people just rising their heads over the horizons line ...

Superb panoramic, thanks for the larger version. The small human figures add a feeling for the dimensions, well composed shot.

Has to be seen large Karl,I like the difference here betweenFG and BG, what catches my eye here is the people's forms on the hill that their curvature has a similarity to the very far away mountain on the left( about, diagonaly looking) ;-)) do you see it? Nice panoramic view.

Pnina, I have not seen this similarity before, but as you mention it, it is there. Perhaps giants approaching from the other side? Karl
