The village of Hushe is the last village where jeep road
ends. It is 140km east of Skardu and the starting point for
expeditions and trekking to various summer pastures and five
glaciers.
Following the Charakusa River and
passing through Shepherd’s summer camp and the junction of the
Gondogoro and Charakusa Rivers, we will cross a wooden bridge to
reach Shaieshcho, which is a large shepherd’s settlement with a
Mosque. The next day we will trek to Dalzampa, which means
“field of flowers”. It is a beautiful campsite at about 4150m,
which lies between two lakes with Masherbrum Mountain and the
white glacier cascading down from Masherbrum Pass reflecting in
the still water.
