Faces of Pakistan

These are from our Gasherbrum II expedition, June-August 2007,
shot with a Canon 5D and mostly the superb 70-200 F4 IS lens.

Most of the people here are from Baltistan, Shigar village; they were incredibly hospitable.
Occasionally we run a K2-Concordia trek, otherwise we can recommend The Mountain Company.
See Our treks for the treks we are running.
