Itinerary description

|
Show original
It dawns with some rain. We have just over 17 km ahead of us, which will allow us to see the eastern glacier of the Masherbrum before entering the Saicho valley. We begin by walking along the moraine of the glacier, to later change it to dirt paths that facilitate progress. We have to cross streams, some very complicated. And before arriving we cross a wooded area that leads downhill to the Saicho camp, which this year is devastated by heavy rains in July
