High valleys

Pierre Neyret, who will be guiding our expedition, has produced a beautiful book with Géraldine Bénestar. Two chapters are of direct interest to our journey: one on the precarious pastoral existence of the Wakhi people in the Shimshal valley (our starting point) and a chapter by Pierre on his previous ski-expeditions in the Karakoram mountains. Illustrated by beautiful pictures throughout.
