On the steep slope of a glacier jutting through the Hunza Valley in Pakistan’s mountainous far north, Tariq Jamil measures the ice’s movement and takes photographs. Later, he creates a report that includes data from sensors and another camera installed near the Shisper Glacier to update his village an hour’s walk downstream.
