This is a great image of the Wakhan and Hindu Kush mountains. This area present great opportunities for people wishing to trek and climb in one of the last great mountain wildernesses. I now live out there and we are starting to see a return of trekkers and mountaineers which is great news for the local people.\\r\\n\\r\\nThank you Christopher for this fantastic image. Best wishes from everyone in the Wakhan.\\r\\n\\r\\nDavid\\r\\nDirector\\r\\nMountain Unity.org
