The Siachen Glacier is the world's highest battlefield. Peaks reach 23,000 feet with temperatures down to 50 below 0 degrees Fahrenheit. More troops died from the cold and glacial ice than by opposing armies. The air is frigid with not enough oxygen to even light a match. Skin bonds with metal and sweat freezes into ice. At one time, Siachen was considered unfit for humans to live there.
