Middle part of Baltoro glacier

This might be Choricho peak, 6756m

Desert-like place in the middle part of Baltoro glacier, with probably Lhungka / Biange (6431m) massif in the background.

Desert-like place in the middle part of Baltoro glacier, with Cathedral massif.

Path on Baltoro Glacier. Due to a reasonably good path (even horses go to Condordia), 12 days K2-Gondorogo trek is easier than neighbouring 12-day Biafo-Hispar trek. There should be similar amount of bigwalls to be seen on both treks, but eighthousanders are on K2 only. Biafo-Hispar is much more in snow as well and generally much much less visited.

Peaks of lower Baltoro glacier

Sleeping right on the moraine as there were no other good places apart from the standard travel agencies campsites. But the weather was still good, fortunately.
