@nn: Now you can probably see the logic of my question of whether you think a KOH style rig will be able to take on the rocks North of Mahodand
Actually its probably possible to track up a prepped KOH style 4x4 until Dewangar, Shonz and maybe Bokhtshal (seen on the map above) which is just up the same valley as Mahodand. After that there is no way across except crossing one of the three passes Kachikhani, Bushkaro and Dadarili all of which are over 15,500 feet and involve significant glaciers
Hence, until the Pak Army and the Government launch some kinda major initiative, for our lifetime we will have to do with a two day trek across the 40 km distance.... So anyone up for the adventure
