Kanjut Sar

Structural and Tectonic Formations

Kanjut Sar rises between the Shimshal and Hisper valleys in the Karakoram range of Pakistan, the twenty-eighth-highest mountain in the world. Its name combines Kanjut, the native name of the Hunza valley, with Sar, the Burushaski word for mountain peak. This entity documents Kanjut Sar specifically as a geological formation, a major Karakoram summit between the Shimshal and Hisper valleys.
