I got a chance to visit Northern Areas of Pakistan (Now Gilgit-Baltistan) in June 2009 when I went on a trip to Gilgit/Hunza. I was with a friend who is from Nasirabad, Hunza and studied in Karachi University with me.
In this particular thread, I am posting pictures from trip to Naltar valley which was a single day trip. We started our journey from Nasirabad (Hunza) at around 9 AM and headed towards Nomal from where a road leads to Naltar valley. We hired a NCP car (taxi), and the driver didn't even care on the section which was filled with boulders. Here is a pictorial journey of that trip..

Road closure for construction work
NCP Taxi No.
The Naltar road was probably recently paved at that time.
