SATELLITE IMAGE RIMO GLACIERS

Here, it really means to go up two of the biggest glacier tongues of the Karakoram, those of the Rimo mountain range (from where, actually, 4 glaciers run out from the north, east, south and west). The Mamostong mountain range can be well observed uphill of the two glaciers. This prohibited region is under Chinese control and certainly the most inaccessible of the mountain chain it has very little been visited and creates a lot of curiosity.
