  • PAKISTAN / Karakorum Laila Peak 6.096 M „Ein Steiler Zahn Im Karakorum“
    Detailausschreibung AMICAL alpin 2018 II. Laila Peak Expedition/Anspruchsvolle 6.000er-Expedition Aktualisiert am 06.11.2017 PAKISTAN / Karakorum Laila Peak 6.096 m „Ein steiler Zahn im Karakorum“ Wow – was ein steiler Zahn! …. bei vielen die erste Reaktion, wenn Sie den Laila Peak zum ersten Mal sehen. Zumeist von Shusbang, einer kleinen grünen Insel unterhalb des Gondogoro La bei der Rückkehr aus dem Baltoro-Gebiet. Dieser Anblick prägt sich ein – einer der schönsten Berge weltweit. Erstbestiegen wurde der Laila Peak durch eine kleine Gruppe von Engländern um Simon Yates in den 80er- Jahren. Einer der beiden Helden aus „Sturz ins Leere“ war über die steile NO-Wand auf- und über die NW-Flanke abgestiegen. Im Jahr 2005 fuhren hier Skandinavier im 45°- 50°- Gelände auf Skiern zu Tal, ohne den Gipfel ganz erreicht zu haben. Diese sehr gleichmäßige, nach oben etwas steiler werdende Flanke, die dem Berg auch sein haltloses Äußeres gibt, wird das Ziel Ihrer Expedition ins obere Hushe- Valley sein. Geleitet wird diese Expedition von Robert Hochreiter, sehr erfahrender und staatlich geprüfter Berg- und Skiführer aus dem AMICAL alpin Team.

  • Hainabrakk East Tower, South Southeast Face
    358 T H E A MERIC A N A LPINE J OURNA L , 2006 View from low in the Trango approach gully: Trango Tower (T; often erroneously called Nameless Tower), Little Trango (LT), and the Southwest Summit of Great Trango (GT). The line shows Cˇmárik and Kopold’s harrowing descent of the northwest face, with (a) marking the gully that avalanched and swept Kopold 150m. The NW face is home to the 1999 American, Russian, and German routes, while the 2003 Ukrainian attempt climbs the promi- nent detached pillar just left of the NW face, continuing high up the left skyline of GT’s summit tower. The Azeem Ridge (2004) roughly follows the right-hand skyline, and the Cˇmárik- Kopold route (Assalam Alaikum) ascends farther right, out-of-view. Vlado Linek Great Trango, southwest face to south face (Assalam Alaikum), not to summit; Hainabrakk East Tower, south southeast face (Mystical Denmo); Shipton Spire, east face to northeast ridge, to with- in 80m of summit (Prisoners of the Shipton); and Ship of Fools, attempt. A joint Czech-Slovak expedition visited the Baltoro from July 26 to August 31. The team comprised eight climbers from Slovakia: Gabo Čmárik, Andrej Kolárik, Igor Koller, Jozef Kopold, Pavol Pekarčík, Juraj Poděbraský, Erik Rabatin, and I. There were four climbers from the Czech Republic: Milan Benian, Martin Klonfar, Petr Piechowicz, and Miroslav Turek. Čmárik, Kopold, Koller, and I had climbed in this region during 2004 and had unfinished projects. In particular Čmárik and Kopold wanted to climb a new line in alpine-style on the south side of Great Trango (6,286m), right of the 2004 American route, Azeem Ridge.

  • Pakistan I 199
    Climbs & Expeditions: Pakistan I 199 PAKISTAN during the winter of 2014-’15, Tomas Mackiewicz (Poland) and Elizabeth Revol (France) reported reaching 7,800m (likely the same point as the Austrians). Mackiewicz and Revol tried again in 2015-’16, making to 7,500m with Arsalan Ahmed Ansari (Pakistan) From the small col at 7,760m, it would be possible to reach the 8,126m main summit either by following the original 1953 route or by traversing to the upper Kinshofer Route. – LINDSAY GRIFFIN, FROM INFORMATION PROVIDED BY MARKUS GSCHWENDT, AUSTRIA HINDU KUSH TIRICH MIR, NORTHWEST FACE, RARE ASCENT AND MINOR VARIATION French climbers Jérôme Chazelas and Thomas Quillet reported reaching the summit of Tirich Mir (7,708m), the highest peak in the Hindu Kush, in July, via the normal route (1967 Czechoslovak Route) up the northwest face. The crux of this route is climbing a couloir above [Above] Ganalo Peak at sunset from high on the northwest face of Nanga Parbat, during a 2008 attempt on the normal site of Camp 3 (ca 6,700m). Here, rather than climb the couloir direct, the two the northwest face. Markus Gschwendt moved out left onto snow slopes and climbed more mixed ground to the ridge above. They placed a high camp above the couloir at 7,200m and then took six hours to reach the summit. HIMALAYA More significant is that Tirich Mir, accessed through Chitral and lying very close to the Afghan border, has seen very little recent activity because of the perceived heightened terrorist threat in this area. This appears to be the first time the mountain has been summited since the NANGA PARBAT, NORTHWEST FACE VIA DIAMA GLACIER, PREVIOUSLY summer of 2001.

  • Glaciers in Pakistan | World General Knowledge
    Glaciers in Pakistan | World General Knowledge With 7,253 known glaciers, including 543 in the Chitral Valley, there is more glacial ice in Pakistan than anywhere on Earth outside the polar regions, according to various studies. Those glaciers feed rivers that account for about 75 percent of the stored-water supply in the country of at least 200 million. But as in many other parts of the world, researchers say, Pakistan’s glaciers are receding, especially those at lower elevations, including here in the Hindu Kush mountain range in northern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Among the causes cited by scientists: diminished snowfall, higher temperatures, heavier summer rainstorms and rampant deforestation. 1) Baltoro Glacier The glacier at 63km in length is one of the largest land glaciers on Earth. It can be accessed through Gilgit-Baltistan region. The glacier gives rise to the Shigar River. 2) Batura Glacier At 53 km in length, the Batura Glacier is up there with the biggest in the world. It lies in the Batura Valley in the Gojal region of Gilgit Baltistan. 3) Biafo Glacier The Biago Glacier is 67kms long and the third biggest land glacier in the entire world. Mango, Baintha and Namla are campsites set up near the glacier and can be accessed through the Askole Village of Gilgit-Baltistan. 4) Panmah Glacier Located in the Central Karakoram National Park, Gilgit-Baltistan, 5) Rupal Glacier It is the source of the Rupal River and lies in the Great Himalayas. It is South of the Nanga Parbat and North of Laila Peak. Downloaded from www.csstimes.pk | 1 Glaciers in Pakistan | World General Knowledge 6) Sarpo Laggo The glacier flows from Pakistan to China just north of the Baltoro Muztagh Range.

  • Glaciar Baltoro (Wikipedia)
    GLACIAR BALTORO (WIKIPEDIA) El glaciar Baltoro, de 57 kilómetros de largo, es uno de los glaciares más largos del mundo fuera de las regiones polares. Está ubicado en el Baltistán, dentro de los Territorios del norte de Pakistán, y se extiende por parte de la cordillera del Karakórum. La subcordillera Baltoro Muztagh está al norte y al este del glaciar, mientras que las montañas de Masherbrum se encuentran al sur. Con 8611 m, el K2 es la montaña más alta de la región. En un radio de 20 km se encuentran otros tres ochomiles. El glaciar es tributario del río Shigar, que desemboca en el río Indo. A su vez, en el Baltoro desembocan varios glaciares: el Godwin-Austen, que fluye desde el sur del K2; el Abruzos y varios glaciares del Gasherbrum, provenientes del grupo de picos del Gasherbrum; el glaciar de Vigne, que viene del Chogolisa; y el glaciar de Yermandendu, que comienza en la zona del Masherbrum. La confluencia del Baltoro con el glaciar Godwin-Austen se conoce como Concordia; este lugar y el campamento base del K2 son destinos populares de senderismo. La parte final del glaciar es muy ancha y su parte central es un extenso campo de nieve. Pequeños glaciares van desembocando, creando cascadas de hielo en el punto de unión. Las paredes laterales tienen notables pendientes, llegando a ser precipicios. El glaciar ha esculpido a su paso estrías en las rocas, y el hielo en movimiento ha formado depresiones que se han convertido en numerosos lagos glaciales. Puede accederse al glaciar por la ciudad balti de Skardu.

  • Bolivia 2006
    ERlK MONASTERIO Bolivia 2006 Thanks are due to thejDlfowing contributors to these notes: Lindsay Griffin, John Biggar, Nick Flyvbjerg, Juliette Gehard, Arnaud Guilfaume, Moira Herring, Alain Mesili, Charlie Netherton and Katsutaka Yokoyama. Favourable weather conditions arrived early in the 2006 season with a premature end to the austral summer monsoon. As usual, most climbing activity was on the normal routes on Huayna Potosi, Illimani and Condoriri, but it was gratifying to see more trekking and climbing activity in the northern Cordillera Real, which has been quite neglected in recent years. Glacier conditions on the approaches to the western routes of Ancohuma and Illampu were by far the best seen over the past 10 years, as there were few crevasses and penitents, but the overall trend is still for rapid glacial recession. Unseasonably early snowfall arrived later in the season, substantially increasing the avalanche risk. Local guides say the climbing season is moving earlier each year. In 2005 the weather was almost continuously bad throughout September. The political situation is always important when it comes to planning a trip to Bolivia's Cordillera. The February 2006 democratic elections were unprecedented in terms of voter turnout, and for the first time elected as president an indigenous leader from a non-traditional party. Evo Morales won by a clear majority and formed a government with strong ideological affiliations to Venezuela and Cuba, rejecting US influence. This brought initial stability to the nation and the political demonstrations and strikes that in previous years paralysed the nation were not a problem during the May-September climbing season.

It is obviously your own institution that provides you the education facility at your door step. Allama Iqbal Open University is the unique in Pakistan which provides education to all citizens; without any discrimination of age, gender, ethnicity, region or religion. It is no doubt that our beloved country had been facing numerous issues since its creation. The initial days were very tough for the newly state but with the blessings of Allah Almighty, it made progress day by day. However, due to conspiracy of external powers and some weaknesses of our leaders, the internal situation of East Pakistan rapidly changed and the end was painful as we lost not only the land but also our Bengali brothers. After the war of 1971, the people and leaders of Pakistan were forced to rethink the future of the remaining country.
