Photo @coryrichards Pakistani soldiers make tea in the darkness of a fiberglass igloo high in the himalaya on the border of India. The igloos house up to five soldiers at a time for three month tours of duty on the worlds highest and most inhospitable battle ground. Unlike other conflict zones, the disputed border of India and Pakistan sees relatively little open fire. More casualties occur from environmental hazards such as exposure and avalanches. I was extremely fortunate to be invited in, sharing tea and stories for nearly two months while on a climbing trip in the Karakoram. @thephotosociety @natgeocreative #photojournalism @3stringsproductions @thenorthface by natgeo
