you tried on 23 aug for noori top, we have crossed noori top at 29 aug till sharda luckily.

When we start our journey from jhalkad, an army check post come in starting of noori top trek, they said that noori top is close from kashmir side when u start to descend, there are 3 to 4 slides that jeep cannot cross and you will not b able to reach Surgon village on jeep.

but after crossing of check post, our jeep driver angrily said that they dont know about trek as we know because we drive in these treks and they dont repair the trek and just sit on check post and giving us lecture.

driver also said that army guys always demoralize drivers by spreading rumors and wrong news.

And we saw that our driver was right as there are 6 to 7 slides but jeeps can cross them and we were at sharda for our lunch

[aesiege]

waisay on which date you tried to cross noori top?

We planned to cross it on 23rd itself but wasted 7 precious hours of daylight due to many issues.

Then our plan was to cross on 24th morning but got news at Jalkhad Hotel from a jeep returning from Surgan that road is closed due to landslides from last day's rain.

We enquired about Nuri Top on 30th morning from Sharda side and they told us that 2,3 vehicles have crossed from Jalkhad to Sharda but road is in very bad shape. So, one of those 2,3 must be your jeep
