also explain the slight thickness of the Main- and Late Ice Age Rongbuk Glacier.
Its lateral moraines run a mere 600 m above the recent glacier surface (Kuhle 1
988a). Further thickening of the ice became impossible due to overflow onto the ...

The pass leads from the north slope (Shaksgam Valley; cf. 3.10) to the south
slope via the Shimshal and Hunza Valleys, and down to the Indus Valley (cf. 3.9
and 3.10) (Kuhle 1988c). It was a transfluence pass, with a minimum ice
