REFLECTED ANTS<br />

In August 1997, before terrorism had really impacted tourist movements in northern Pakistan,<br />

I hired a guide and porters to complete a route in Baltistan to K2 base camp, then over<br />

Gondogoro La, back to Hushe. I had reached Gondogoro La from the Hushe side 5 years<br />

earlier. Here my porters (the 'A Team') are reflected in Daltsampa Lake. Trekking in this less<br />

populated region is a more remote experience than in nearby Nepal. Well worn trails dotted<br />

with tea houses are replaced by vast deserted glaciers.<br />
