Bibi Gul and her friends were spending the summer camping with their families on the 12,200-foot Shandur Pass in the rugged Hindu Kush of Pakistan’s North West Frontier Province. They had come up from their tiny village to find fresh pastures for their goats. The girls were sitting by a river talking and joking while doing the wash for the families in their camp. Being Ismailis they are permitted to show their faces and are allowed to go to school.
