Expedition kayaking is only half about the kayaking. A large part of it is going somewhere new, and seeing things you chance experienced before, many of them putting you out of your comfort zone. Pakistan, November 12, 2008. |

The rock formations are just incredible. Sick last night, I'm now separated from the team by a large gorge. That's ok as it still don't feel too hot. As it ends up, roadside days are the best for photography here. I'd love to go back just to shoot some day, in that dream world with a d5 and set of 300-600mm primes. |

Last night Roland and I stayed in a small town above the rest of the team. I pooped myself in the night. Twice. There was no running water but I found an irrigation ditch nearby. Inspirational quote about loving travel and adventure? Good morning November 11th, 2008. |

Phil Boyer enters the second scout of the day. This one was big, this is about 1/10th of the rapid. He got some wicked freestyle on in an eddy at the bottom. At this point I think we're all wondering what we got ourselves into. Indus River, Pakistan, November 10th 2008. |

Pakistan; November 10th, 2008. I've never paddled big water before, nor taken photos of it. It's going to be a learning process. First scout of the day, @rafaortizkayak proves. @redbull |

Once you have kayaks on the roof it's like being a traveling circus. On top of being white and foreign. No luck going up the Indus, the endless Kashmir war is too real to allow us far enough up to find rapids. Pakistan, November 8, 2008. |

We're stopped at this military checkpoint for several hours and many cups of chai tea as they try to decide if we need more paperwork to kayak upstream of here on the Braldu River. Half the time is now spending a good part of the visit throwing up or with explosive diarrhea, most with both. Traveling is so fun °. Pakistan, November 7, 2008. |

Driving up towards K2 we stop in a small village and the camera is turned on us. Funny how a quick stop to ask for directions can turn into an hour visit. Pakistan, November 7, 2008. |

No blending in now. Instead of putting on the Indus we decide to head closer to K2 and run the Braldu River. To do this we need to rent a 4x4. Good thing diesel Land Rover trucks abound in Pakistan. Just a few kilometers outside of the city @rafaortizkayak and @ckorbulic adjust the load. @immersionresearch |

The Bedford is one the most iconic sights of Pakistan. Here one passes in front of Nanga Parbat on the Karakoram Highway as we leave one major tributary behind, the Gilgit, and head up the Rondu Gorge to Skardu. Pakistan, November 6, 2008. |

As we get close to Gilgit we start seeing families camped along the river. We find out that most are camped for temporary work in the semi precious gem mines of the area. |

This is about as low as the Indus gets. I've never paddled big water before, and this is about ~40,000cfs (~900cms). Thankfully after the Gilgit confluence it should be a bit less. Pakistan, November 5, 2008 |

Spirit falls is a ton of fun. This particular angle is shot to death, but that's because it looks so good! I don't care if you've seen it already, it makes me stoked anyway!
