Got back today after 18 days and 3865kms of pure unadulterated fun of touring solo in the highest and coldest desert in the world, I guess this photo says it all…
High_Side its just a stamp, but i must say this pass is a lot steeper and tougher then the "highest motorable road in the world" Khardung La 18380ft's(did it last year) which is child’s play compared with Chang La @ 17800ft which I did this year as well as last year. This year I skipped Khardung la since it’s only a stamp and doesn’t have that good a view or a ride to offer.
thanks CentralOzzy
