Since the 1950s, paddlers from all over the world have traveled into northeastern Pakistan to descend the Indus River’s Rondu Gorge. With every team and attempted trip, the burly canyon section’s reputation has grown—continuous Class V for more than a week. This winter, paddlers Mike Dawson, Aniol Serrasolses, and Ciarán Heurteau set off for a ten-day trip to add their names to the history books of Pakistan’s largest river.

Dawson: The river was filled with huge features almost the whole way on our route between the northern towns of Skardu and Gilgit. With such sustained high-level paddling, the days were totally draining for both mind and body.
