This was the steepest part.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:03:46 +0500 #283

Steep curves.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:04:53 +0500 #284

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:07:28 +0500 #285

Valley down there.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:08:59 +0500 #286

This is what we have just climbed.
Just look at the road.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:10:15 +0500 #287

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:11:37 +0500 #288

Sharp turns.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:21:49 +0500 #289

Sorry for the pics quality.
As Ghulam Rasool was flying on these turns in order to reach up before dark, Secondly scenes were changing every second so it was really to focus. That's why all are random pics and no focus.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:27:29 +0500 #290

Thats much better.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:29:09 +0500 #291

Higher and higher.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:33:42 +0500 #292

Now the most dangerous part of the pass starts.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:35:07 +0500 #293

Steep climbs and no safety walls.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:36:49 +0500 #294

The most tricky patch.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:47:04 +0500 #295

Those who have passed this know the elevation of this part.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:53:23 +0500 #296

Looking back from where we climbed.
Ustaad jee @mountainier must have some interesting videos of this part to share.

Sprite (Sprite) 2014-04-29 04:56:26 +0500 #297

At that point, camera battery went out
And it was dark, we were almost there, so no pics after that.

Finally we reached up there.
There was heavy VIP movement on the way. Land Cruisers, Vigos double cabins every where.
And we call ourselves a poor country. :-#

But thanks God, they all were leaving, only few stayed for the night.

After strolling up and down and being failed to find a place to spend the night, finally selected a peaceful place on top. Away from VIP parties and noise.

Eventually found the tranquility, which we came in search of.
The only sound was roaring wind and clapping of leaves.

We had a “Lavish Buffet Dinner” of Haleem, Chicken tikka and peas packs, and rice over a big flat rock on the hill in the shining moonlight.
What a romantic night it was !
What else do you expect from life ???
