Majesty

Taken while standing in the middle of the vastness that is the West-Vigne Glacier (altitude 5000 meters plus) and looking North. That was the British expedition making its way South towards Ali Camp and Gondogoro La.

 

Broadpeak - called so for it's 1.5 kilometer wide summit - was initially labeled K3. It is the 4th highest peak in Pakistan and the 12th highest in the world. Yup, we got some serious mountains over here.
