Changi Tower 5820-M situated in Nangma Valley. It is an eight hours walk from Kande Village which is 5 hours drive from Skardu. Changi Tower is part of larger Amin Massive and enormous granite block in the upper reaches of Nangma Valley. The Amin Massive includes Amin Peak, Changi Tower, and several other unclimbed spires. Most of the rock within Nangma Valley is either granite, gneiss, or schist; however, the predominant rock type is granite, and there is lots of it. An Australian/New Zealand party also made first ascents in the Nangma Valley. The all - women's team of Abby Watkins, Vera Wong, and Nicola Woodford climbed Excess Baggage on the 5,300m Changi Tower. The route works left up the main rock wall to climb a prominent crack system and snow slope above to the main summit. Difficulties were rated at 5.10 and A2+. Watkins and Wong currently hold the women's speed record for an ascent of the Nose on El Capitan (16 hours and 40 minutes).
