==Synopsis==
After meeting Longinus the first time and leaving in a rush to protect Banapur Ajay returns, as he walks inside the tent he sees Longinus sitting on the bench, he then stands up in excitement and welcomes Ajay telling him that they should work together to protect Kyrat while preaching as he usually does. He tells Ajay that they are in need of weapons if they are going to protect Kyrat and supply the Golden Path, he instructs him to travel to the Himalayas with a tracker to retrieve a lost shipment before the army gets it back. 
Ajay leaves the tent and travels to the Himalayas with a sherpa who owns a yak. After going through the camps on the mountains and searching he finally finds box containing blood diamonds with no weapons, he then returns and hands it over to Longinus, who is surprised from this discovery and tells him about the dirty business he used to work in Africa as well as his close death experience when he was shot in the head, saying that it was the turning moment in his life that changed him into the preacher version that is present in the game. After that he informs Ajay that the Golden Path will be getting their weapon shipments as well as De Pleur's opium shipment, Ajay leaves the tent and the mission ends.
==Gameplay==
The player will face harsh conditions in this mission as the blizzard is sweeping across reducing visibility, they will also have to acquire an oxygen mask in order to survive as oxygen levels are very low on this high altitude, its also important to note that snow chunks hanging off rocks can be shot down and deal damage to enemies.
The first camp contains few tents as well as some Royal Army assaulters in snow gear all wearing oxygen mask, you can refuel your oxygen supply by looting oxygen tanks left on the ground, from dead enemies as well as inside tents, after reaching the objective area you will automatically equip the tracking device, when the tracking device lights green it means that you are in the right direction, follow the tracking device signal until you reach a buried crashed helicopter, next to it is a soldier containing the box however looting him will reveal an empty box which requires you to move to the next location, snowmobiles are also present in this level being one of the few levels where this vehicle is available in. After getting the first empty box you must look over the 3 other locations to find the shipment, the first area located in the south (the most right location on the map) is a Royal Army camp with 2 assaulters and one commander, the shipment is located on the commander body, keep in mind the commander can shoot a flare to call for backup incase you are detected.
Head to the next location for the 3rd box (there are 4 in total), be careful of the wolves and snow leopards, going inside the cave there will be a brown Himalayan bear, loot the body and move to the final location where there will be two snow leopards surrounding the last corpse holding the box, after looting them you need to head back to the extraction point (which is also the same as the area you start the mission) there will be soldiers patrolling around so its important to practice caution and use the element of surprise to take them out, a helicopter will appear at the first camp location and you can either wait for it to leave or shoot it down.
After reaching the extraction point interact with the Sherpa to exit the level and return to Kyrat.
==Trivia==
*This mission takes place in the 2nd highest location in not just Far cry 4 but also the entire franchise reaching the altitude of 26290ft/8013m just before Pralaya Giri, it also explains the need for oxygen masks as those are not present in other levels.
*Its slightly unclear how the shipment reached that location as the flight altitude for helicopters is usually way less than the altitude of Arbuda the location in the mission as the air density is too low for the choper, blades also deal with more drag.
*The wingsuit can be obtained for free after finishing the level, its located on the last bench outside of the tent.
