Thanks to all that helped out - teaching kids that having fun includes cleaning up afterward. #Baltistan’s winter festival was dedicated to bringing attention to #ClimateAction, and it did! @RNAKOfficial @waqas_johar @AKRSPGBC @GBPolice1422 https://t.co/OvAhHyYYcf

Thank you #Skardu! We had a great time on your rink running drills, playing games together, and participating in the first ever Baltistan Ice Hockey Competition! It was… spectacular! #GoNorth #WinterSports pic.twitter.com/m2XohPCbWT

After 3 days of training, we watched girls who have never skated before learn to whip around a rink with a stick and puck! We can’t wait to see Baltistan’s first girls hockey team compete next year…!! pic.twitter.com/QrNIW03CP2

Since we all like to cuddle up with a good book after a day on the ice, we thought we would leave a few Canadian authors behind. We hope you enjoy! pic.twitter.com/de0QUJZIud
