i walked about 4 hours from the lake and climbed to the snow line of the maintain when I was there, luckily got hitchhike when coming back to the lake, it's nice to spent a night and morning in a tent at the lakeside.
we drove to and back in 1 day. Regretfully, i lost a perfect opportunity to touch the long and fantastic slope of Muztagata due to a partner's terrible highland sickness.
