The Hushe River is a tributary to the Shyok River which itself is a tributary to the Indus River. The main source of the Hushe River is the Gondogoro Glacier in Pakistan. Some streams also flow from other glaciers of the Hushe valley. The Hushe river joins with Saltoro River at Haldi village before joining the Shyok River. Both the Hushe and Saltoro rivers join the Shyok river at the Tsa Thang Ghursay village.
Gondogoro Glacier (Urdu: گوندوگرو گلیشیر) or Gondoghoro Glacier is a glacier near Concordia in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. It serves as an alternative means to reach Concordia, the confluence of Baltoro Glacier and Godwin-Austen Glacier.
Situated at an elevation of 5,940 metres in the Baltistan Division, Gondogoro connects Concordia in Shigar District with Hushe in Ghanche District. The Gondogoro Pass is renowned for its panoramic views and holds significance in trekking and mountaineering, offering a striking display of Baltistan's diverse and rugged landscapes.
