Marscraft passes by as well Continuing towards Khorog (hopefully!)

Making another almost random choice to turn to follow the southern part of the river instead of the eastern one

The river ends here, wonder if this was a wrong turn or just a global scenery inaccuracy?

I doubt I'm on course anymore, I'm already up to 15000 feet in an attempt to stay above the terrain! You can hardly call this a valley anymore!

The ice situation is good so far... ...but the navigation situation isn't! My best guess is I'm too far north to reach Khorog...

...so I'd better turn south then, probably More traffic ahead! Looking good!

And a particularly wide river... even better I'll eat my X-Plane.org hat if this river doesn't lead to Khorog!

And there it is! Against all odds, I've reached Khorog in this old Beech 18 twin prop!
