Raheela

Posted: Oct 14, 2005 Fri 08:52 am     Views: 79   

Its a sad day as I learn that rescuers in Islamabad were not able to retrieve the body of Raheela Gul, Pakistan’s only woman who had trekked the poles and the entire Thar, Nara and Choolistan deserts in one go. We met briefly North of Khipro in the bitter lakes of Nara desert in March this year. She was one woman amongst a team of Geo TV and local guides. We shared the same passion for mountains and deserts and were dreamers in the same stride. Today she is no more but hope tells me that being a fighter and survivor, she may yet be found alive fighting the rubble of Margalla Towers.

Raheela we are proud of you and remember you.

Could someone guide me how to upload her pic on unplugged, or could do it from her web site
