Itinerary description
|
IMPORTANT NOTE: THE DIFFICULTY WITH WHICH I CATALOG MY ROUTES IS REFERRED TO MOUNTAINS USED TO WALK, WHO UNWIND WITH FACE ON ALL THE LAND, NOT FOR OCCASIONAL HIKERS. IF YOU HAVE LITTLE EXPERIENCE, ADD ONE MORE DEGREE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF MY ROUTES SO YOU WILL NOT GET SURPRISES
Short stage between the two camps of Khoburse and Urdukas.
The route at no time goes inside the Baltoro Glacier but to the south of it through relatively comfortable terrain. We pass at the foot of three glacier tongues that descend from Pico Urdukas, which gives its name to the camp we are going to.
The location of this camp is spectacular, at the foot of the Baltoro Glacier and on a good lake that makes this one and with the Trango Towers and the Cathedral Peaks just in front.
The day in general is quite closed but without actually raining. In the afternoon we take the opportunity to practice rappelling on the walls that are above the camping area.
