Be aware of the fact that even if you manage to pass the Pamir Highway and get to Sary Tash, riots are going on between Sary Tash and Gulcho in Kirgizstan. The couple with the Leyland I mentioned above, who were the last to pass Khorog got stuck there and were personally violently threatened. Some friendly people helped them to pass offroad by very difficult tracks.
I hope I am wrong but my latest info is that officially: negociations in Khorog are going into the right direction. In my opinion this kind of statements mean nothing changed and there is absolutely no progress.
GRTZ,
