Rakaposhi.

Image
Rakaposhi, is a mountain in the Karakoram mountain range in Pakistan. It is situated in the Nagar Valley approximately 100 km north of the city of Gilgit in the Gilgit District of the Gilgit–Baltistan province of Pakistan. Of Rakaposhi Colonel Tanner wrote as follows:  The mighty Rakaposhi or devil's tail of Gilgit, rising from ground which is 7000 or 8000 feet above the sea, may be viewed from a distance of less than 40 miles by any one bold enough to  make the journey over the dreadful Saichar pass to Chaprot and thence up to the grassy downs above that place, and the splendid appearance of Rakaposhi will be a sufficient reward for his trouble. It is a vast clean-cut 'brilliant snow needle, absolutely sharp, rising thousands of feet above a mass of broken snows, below which are "the wild precipices and serrated ridges peculiar to the Gilgit mountains.

Muztagh Ata is 26 miles south of Kungur and is not visible from Kashgar. Travellers have frequently thought that they have seen Muztagh Ata from Kashgar: but they have been misled by the natives, who believe Kungur and Muztagh Ata to be one summit. Colonel Wahab called the Muztagh Ata peak " Tagharma." The fact that both Kungur and Muztagh Ata were named "Tagharma'  by surveyors has tended to increase the confusion. The name Tagharma is given by natives to the peak of Muztagh Ata because it towers above the town of Tagharma in the Sarikol valley, and Wahab was correct in his application of the name. But Trotter made a mistake in adopting the assumption of Kashgarians, that the great snow ...
