Friends of Kashmir, welcome in Blankonthemap, the Northern Kashmir web
site !
Much of mountaineer climb on the giant of Baltoro whereas not far,
the superb valley of Charakusa, Khridas, Nangma, Homboro and Kondus
be populate of isolated towers and superb granite spires which remain
out of the world. Charakusa valley opened only since 1984 and that its
access is strictly regulated because of the militarized zone of very
close Siachen area, always disputed between India and Pakistan.
Exploration is continuing, when spy satellites furrow the skies, at
the time where whoever can consult high quality satellite images from
home. Remember that the majority of incredible rock towers and rised
enormous pillars of the area were discovered by Westerners only fifteen
years ago. This page is devoted to the one of the greatest geographical
discovery of these last years, of these valleys which for some like
Homboro and Khridas were discovered 5 years ago! It's not only for political
reasons but only for geographical reasons (difficult access) and thanks
to mountaineers whom one could also describe as exploring adventurers.
We have choice to continue to furrow the trodden ways, or to leave it
! I invite you to do by consulting this web page.

Much
of mountaineer climb on the giant of Baltoro whereas not far,
the superb valley of Charakusa, Khridas, Nangma, Homboro and Kondus
is growing by isolated towers and superb granite spires which
remain out of the world. Charakusa valley opened only since 1984
and that its access is strictly regulated cause of the militarized
zone of very close Siachen area, always disputed between India
and Pakistan.
Exploration is still continuing, when spy satellites furrow the

images from home. Remember that the majority of incredible rock
towers and rised enormous pillars of the area were discovered
