Salang Pass

This week our hero went to the Salang Pass with an expedition.  The Salang Pass is in the Hindu Kush mountains north of Kabul.  It is at 12,723 feet and is snow covered, or there is snow on the ground, almost all of the year.  If you look carefully in the first picture you can see a village in the valley below.  Jason says it is getting colder every night and that they are already freezing at night.  He stayed up all night last night to watch the TCU game, so he was a little tired today, since the game didn't start until 4:30 Afghan time.
