Daulat Beg Oldi
Daulat Beg Oldi (also Oldie, DBO), Ladakh, state of Jammu & Kashmir, India is a historic camp site and current military base located on an ancient trade route connecting Ladakh to Uyghuristan. The Chip Chap River flows just to the south of Daulat Beg Oldi from east to west. Daulat Beg Oldie also has an airstrip at an altitude of 5065 meters (16614 feet), and is the world's highest airstrip.
==Location and physical conditions==
Daulat Beg Oldi lies near the easternmost point of the Karakoram Range in a cold desert region in the far north of India, just 8 km south of the tibet Chinese border and 9 km northwest of the Aksai Chin Line of Actual Control between China and India. Other than Siachen Glacier military bases, it is India's northernmost built-up area. The nearest inhabited town is Murgo (literally: "the gateway of death" in Yarkandi Uyghur) to the south, which has a small population of Baltis who primarily depend on apricot farming and yak rearing.
The Indian government first announced plans in 2001 to construct a motorable road from Leh to its destination at Daulat Beg Oldi.
Temperature plummets as low as -30 C in the winters. The weather deteriorates frequently with strong icy winds lashing much of DBO. DBO has very little if any vegetation or wildlife. Communication is possible only through INMARSAT (satellite) phones.
