N15/N35 interchange on the Karakoram Highway, Chilas, Pakistan — September 2, 2023

We drove the Karakoram Highway yesterday to the Khunjerab Pass, at 15,397 feet, where Pakistan turns into China. I wanted to make this journey for eons. The Karakoram range is simply jaw dropping, and now I too agree, these mountains are indeed the playground of the gods.
