This is going into nothingness. Hunza "Mythical Shangri-La" has its own charisma. The wonderful path you can see in this picture goes to Ultar Glacier and Meadows... This path also leads you to two water irrigation channels. Mind that There is not much rain in this area... The people here has adapted an amazing way to irrigate this barren land...
