Pamir Highway without tourists. The ending. Revenge.

Pamir Highway without tourists. The ending. Revenge.
“The glass must be poured full.
And drink to the bottom."
Life wisdom.
Journey through three and a half countries five thousand miles long - Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Gorno-Badakhshan. How life changes 32 kilograms of heroin - seventeen hours at the border. Fraudsters or victims - what was it? Altitude 4655 meters - normal flight. Gasoline at a triple price from a canister through a funnel - Pamir gas station. The story is ready.

There are eight more kilometers to Bor-Dobo.

There was no snow on or near the road. In the distance, on the tops of the mountains, there is - it can be seen in the photo. Once the snow started to fall a little, but ended very quickly. It was here (37.514400, 72.844100). Here is a link to the video, watch at 3.00 minutes, where I overtake a cyclist.

This is the Murgab River near the village of Murgab. The river passes through Lake Sarez and is further called Bartang. The Bartang River flows into the Pyanj River near the village of Rushan.

Your last photo is my favourite place in the whole of the Pamir highway 'land'... I miss it quite a bit.
