The Jeep Ride

The Jeep Ride is an integral part of any adventure in the Karakoram. The one to Thungol was no exception. Not only did we have a death grip on the grab bar at all times but had to surmount some major obstacles nature had thrown in the path. The first was a washed out section of the track. When I looked at the torrent blocking out path and asked Ayub, our guide, what we were going to do, he calmly said it would take no more than 2 hours to fix it. Sure enough, the guides and the local who are used to taking matters into their own hands created a ford over which we quickly crossed. The second obstacle where the road had slid into the Braldu river. Here we had to dismount and cross by foot to the other side where more jeeps were waiting. It was a marvel to see the ingenuity and initiative of the Baltis.

I'm sorry but why do people call TOYOTA Jeep? Stop calling them Jeep.

I know well the difference between a Toyota and a Jeep but in this area every SUV is a Jeep sort of like copying machines are called Xerox....and secondly there were actual jeeps in the convoy as well.

[@PREDATOR925]

the definition of the word JEEP is any vehicle with 4 wheel drive, so technically you can call any car, truck, suv with four wheel drive function a JEEP. But the word JEEP is registered trade mark of Chryslers motor company that's why no other car maker can use this word for their cars or suvs

These aren't jeeps they are Toyota Land Cruisers......
