Fringes on Pamir Mountains, Hindu Kush and Himalayas

The range is around 500 km (311 mi) long, and is the most intensely glaciated piece of the world outside the polar locales. The Siachen Ice sheet at 76 kilometers (47 mi) and the Biafo Ice sheet at 63 kilometers (39 mi) rank as the world's second and third longest icy masses outside the polar regions.[5]

The Karakoram is limited on the upper east by the edge of the Tibetan Level, and on the north by the Pamir Mountains. The southern limit of the Karakoram is framed, west to east, by the Gilgit, Indus, and Shyok Waterways, which isolate the range from the northwestern end of the Himalaya go appropriate as these streams focalize southwestward towards the fields of Pakistan..
