| Summary/Abstract |
Since 1984 the Indian and Pakistani armies have been locked in the world’s highest war on Siachen Glacier in the Karakoram Himalaya. This remote location is the world’s only nuclear trijunction as well as a source of drinking water for significant portions of India and Pakistan, and its possession is considered by both governments to be key to their national security. In the past, alpine battles were fought predominantly on glaciers with a precipitation-dominated accumulation type; Siachen, however, gains most of its new ice mass from avalanches and icefalls. This has presented unique challenges in tactics and logistics, rendering many of the strategies of modern conventional warfare useless, and the style of mountain warfare these challenges have produced has impacted both the combatants and the glacier itself. Existing literature on Siachen, while it discusses the verticality of the conflict, has done little to analyze the singular nature of warfare on a high-altitude glacier with an avalanche-heavy accumulation type. This paper draws on USGS Landsat data, glaciological mass balance studies, hydrological studies, firsthand combat accounts and historical reviews of the region to examine the unique tactics, logistics and impact of warfare on Siachen Glacier.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article will focus on the 1936 English language edition of The Ascent of Mount Stalin (Ascent hereafter). Ascent provides a firsthand account of the planning and progress of the expedition, the climbing of Mount Stalin, and the physical and human landscape in which it took place. The expedition was a major scientific and mountaineering event, which involved leading Soviet scientific and political figures. Mount Stalin was the highest point in the USSR and the highest outside of the Himalayas to have been climbed at the time.
