Paragliding in Pakistan - May 2009 - Best flight of my life.

Brad Sander, Oriol Fernandez, Patrick Troubet and me flying along the west and north sides of Rakaposhi. Rakaposhi is 7788m and is located just east of the Karakorum Highway in northern Pakistan. We flew over so many glaciers I lost count. Here is a link to my track log if your interested at looking at the route we took http://www.paraglidingforum.com/leonardo/flight/196278 Its best to check it out on google earth and tilt the earth, then you can get a better idea of the size of the mountains we were flying around.

5/5 and favorited - REALLY GOOD JOB!

I am VERY jealous :P

Matty, why do you guys not use Pod harnesses-personal preferance or too much weight?

[mattysenior]

When you've got so much other gear to deal with having a big harness doesn't seem like the best option.
