When we reach Shounter Village, we inquire for the porters and Guides who can take us to Mir Malik astore but there was no one ready to cross that pass. After one hour, 2 person get ready to take us to Mir Malik, so at 1 pm we started our trek towards Top. This is actually the long trek till astore and from shounter village trek gradually go up and up and the final portion of the top is full of boulders and ascend is so much steep, When we saw the final ascend of the top then we thought to ourselves that how can we cross this ascend, looks like a straight wall. Season was totally off so there was no snow, total trek was barren and rocky with full of boulders and steep ascend.
