KKH Season??
 
Perhaps posting KKH season makes it sound abit like a hunting expedition but i spose it is in some ways ' to infinity and beyond' sorry i digress,

I am planning to be in Islamabad around 3rd November am i too late to make the climb up the KKH to the chinese border?

Depends how far you want to go.......
 
I was up there in January this year and got as far as Gilgit. About 1500m there but the road climbs steeply to the Chinese border after, i think its 3000m+ , but im sure its not much less.
I think we were lucky and got a weather window as we didnt see much snow apart from in Muree and on the Chattar Plain. It was -25C at night in Gilgit though.
The ride up was absolutely amazing and the highlight of our trip, so if the weather looks okay-ish i'd say it would be worth a go, although i reckon 0% chance of getting to the Chinese border(okay maybe 1%)
Posted some video footage of the KKH on our blog. A 5 minute montage of Pakistan, mainly the KKH

Awesome
 
Hey Wonky - those are awesome videos, well done mate! Inspiring.

We hoping to hit there in a couple of years in a 4x4 and I'm salivating at the thought.

Can I ask a question about putting videos on your blog? I haven't really been in touch with the you tube generation (legal reasons), is it dependant on the blog, on can you wack one on from you tube onto any blog?

Anyway mate, great site ......

Only messed with it last week. Exported vid from FinalCutExpress as a vid for web at 'medium broadband' file size. Got a YouTube account. Posted it. YouTube give you html code and then you cut and paste it into your blog.
Tooooooo Eeeeeaaaaasyyyyyy.
