Thanx Porshe,
Well I raised the vti an inch all around before leaving. did not have too much trouble on the way, scraped the car while going over a landslide area but no damage done . Believe me all cars except jeeps had a tough time there!

Picture of landslide below. Indus on one side without any road barriers and sand/stones coming from above every few minutes!!

we also did a little offroading on the Pajero Mini. We went to the upper Kachura lake on the mini with 4 adults on board.

There was a point where the local hiace drivers were not going any further due to the track conditions and a small stream, only local 4x4s were going till the last point of the upper kachura lake track.

Our Mini also managed to reach till the last point(H)
