The Passu Cones are a striking Karakoram formation of 6000m jagged peaks which are a backdrop to the village of Passu, in Gojal, far North Pakistan. Driving towards them and winding and ascending through them on The Karakoram Highway leads to the 4700m Khunjerav Pass, and the China border. The fences or border markers here are all stone as it is the most easily available building material. Wood is precious and limited in supply. Wishing a peaceful Friday and weekend during this post- Christmas period and into 2025. If only the whole world were at peace….

This is one of the vehicle suspension bridges on the 4WD track into Shimshal in very far north Pakistan. Our destination is in the mountains ahead through steep river gorges. The track from the end of the bridge clatters through loose stones into some sort of road. I do like adventure! Have a stonkingly Good Friday and a wonderful weekend. Love from Summer in Australia
