Spantik-Sosbun Mountains


The Spantik-Sosbun Mountains are a subrange of the Karakoram range in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. The highest peak is Spantik, 7,027 m.
The other namesake peak is Sosbun Brakk, 6,413 m.
The Spantik-Sosbun Mountains are a narrow range, about 120 km long, trending roughly east–west. On the north, the range is bounded by the important Hispar and Biafo Glaciers, across which lie the Hispar Muztagh and Panmah Muztagh respectively. On the southwest, the Barpu Glacier and the longer Chogo Lungma Glacier separate the range from the Rakaposhi-Haramosh Mountains; the pass known as the Polan La separates the Barpu from the Chogo Lungma, and links the two ranges. On the southeast, the Braldu River separates the range from the somewhat lower Mango Gusor Mountains.
