Shimshal pass is also known as Pamir pastures by the local population who use this pass for 5 months for grazing their herd of sheep, yaks and other domestic animals. One can find high altitute peaks including Minghling Sar (6050m plus) at Shimshal pass. The peaks are a good training ground for aspring mountaineers and climbers
