Pakistan and the Passu Glacier - Gilgit

7:42 AM / Posted by Travel & Tourism /


The beautiful town of Passu sits along the Hunza River, at the base of the Passu Glacier. Several years ago the glacier and melting snow, mixed with rain, caused major flood and runoff damage resulting in the damming of the river. Pakistani airforce jets had to bomb the dam to allow the river to run and prevent further flood damage to the valley.
