As part of a Royal Geographical Society expedition, he surveyed over 5,180 square kilometers of the region, contributing significantly to the understanding of the Karakoram range. Conway made the first recorded ascent of a subsidiary peak of Baltoro Kangri, and his mapping efforts were highly regarded, earning him the Founder's Medal from the Royal Geographical Society in 1905. His pioneering work in the Karakoram, including surveying glaciers and mountains, played a crucial role in the region's subsequent exploration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gyan Publishing House","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46195446775959,"sku":"9789369204649","price":196.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789369204649.webp?v=1769300576","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/climbing-and-exploration-in-the-karakoram-himalayas-9789369204649","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
