Nature often has its own plans, and on August 28th, Babusar Pass found itself blanketed under a surprising layer of heavy snowfall. This unexpected weather event has led authorities to exercise caution by minimizing traffic through the pass.

Social media platforms have been buzzing with videos depicting the breathtaking yet treacherous sight of Babusar Top draped in a white, snowy cloak. As the snow continued to fall relentlessly, the roads leading to the pass were also buried beneath layers of snow.

Motorists en route to Babusar Pass found themselves in a predicament. Many had to halt their journeys by the roadside, unable to venture further due to the hazardous road conditions. Those who were already on their way to the pass were forced to stop midway, with the elements clearly asserting their dominance.

The local government took proactive measures to restrict traffic flow through the pass, a decision guided by the concern for public safety. However, the task of clearing the roads from the thick blanket of snow was no small feat and could take several hours to accomplish.

This sudden change in weather conditions made driving a perilous task, with vehicles struggling to maintain traction on the icy roads. The backdrop of a relentless blizzard added to the severity of the situation, hampering visibility and making any kind of travel a risky proposition.

Moreover, the district administration has also implemented a ban on nighttime travel along the Mansehra-Naran-Jalkhad Road, a vital route connecting Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Gilgit-Baltistan. These precautionary measures highlight the authorities’ commitment to ensuring the safety of travelers, as security concerns and unpredictable weather conditions continue to loom large.

With security issues and erratic weather patterns becoming a norm, travelers have been urged to remain vigilant and adaptable. While the allure of Babusar Pass remains undeniable, nature’s power to disrupt plans serves as a reminder of its untamed force.
