An account of the Netherlands 2nd Karakoram Expedition which explored the Batura, Hispar, and Shimshal glaciers. Visser-Hooft, together with her husband, Philips Visser, conducted four Karakoram expeditions from 1922-35. A separate account of this second expedition was also written by Philips and published in Dutch. This is the only one of their expeditions to have an English-language account.
