Siachen Glacier is situated to the

States Siachen's location: it is in the Karakoram, largest in Nubra Valley of the Himalaya, and listed under Ladakh/Rimo area — situating Siachen in northern Ladakh/Karakoram.

A student could place Siachen on a map of Ladakh/Karakoram and compare its longitude to that of Aksai Chin to judge east/west relation.

Mentions Siachen/Nubra valley and approach via Khardung La, linking Siachen firmly to the Nubra/Ladakh region and Saltoro range positions.

Using Nubra/Khardung La locations on a map, a student can infer Siachen's relative position within Ladakh and compare to Aksai Chin's known area.

Lists Khardung La as a pass that 'connects Leh with Siachen Glacier' and locates several passes in Ladakh/Tibet border area, reinforcing Siachen's placement in northern Ladakh/Karakoram corridor.

Locate Khardung La and related passes on a map to triangulate Siachen's location against Aksai Chin.

Describes Aksai Chin as a district/area claimed by China in eastern Ladakh and mentions features of the 'western sector' boundary and eastern Ladakh claims.

Place Aksai Chin in 'eastern Ladakh' on a map and compare its longitude to the Karakoram/Nubra Siachen position to assess whether Siachen lies east of it.

Notes operational history (Operation Meghdoot) securing passes Sia La and Bilfond La in the Siachen area and distinguishes control of Gyong La, tying Siachen to specific passes and fronts in the Ladakh region.

Map these named passes to better pinpoint Siachen's position relative to Aksai Chin's mapped extent.

Lists Siachen as located in the Karakoram and describes it as the largest in the Nubra Valley.

A student could check a map to see the relative positions of Nubra Valley (Karakoram) and Leh to judge whether Siachen lies east of Leh.

States Siachen lies near Karakoram, pierces the Saltoro Range, and that the Nubra river emerges from Karakoram glaciers and meets the Shyok river.

Using a map showing Karakoram, Saltoro Range, Nubra and Shyok rivers, a student can infer directional relations between Siachen and Leh.

Identifies other Karakoram glaciers (e.g., Chong Kumdan) and explicitly locates them in Ladakh and notes they feed the Shyok River.

Comparing the locations of Karakoram glaciers and Leh (in Ladakh) on a map helps determine if Siachen is east, north, etc., of Leh.

Describes Ladakh and river courses, mentioning Leh in the context of regional drainage (Indus receives Zaskar below Leh).

A student can use this to place Leh within Ladakh on a map and then compare it with the Karakoram/Nubra location of Siachen to judge relative direction.

Identifies Siachen as in the Karakoram, north-west of K2 and pierced by the Saltoro Range, and notes Nubra river emerges from Karakoram glaciers (Siachen area).

On a map, locate K2 and the Karakoram/Saltoro area and compare relative positions of Siachen and Gilgit to judge whether Siachen lies to the north.

Lists Siachen as a Karakoram glacier and separately notes other glaciers (e.g., Chogo Lungma) are 'located in Gilgit Baltistan', implying distinct Karakoram features versus Gilgit-located glaciers.

Use a regional map to place named Karakoram glaciers relative to those explicitly stated to be 'in Gilgit Baltistan' to infer relative north/south or east/west relationships.

Explains that the Shyok–Nubra tributaries arise from Siachen (Karakoram) and that the Gilgit is another important tributary joining the Indus from the west—showing Siachen-fed rivers and Gilgit-fed rivers are distinct tributary systems.

Compare the courses of the Nubra/Shyok rivers (from Siachen) and the Gilgit river on a map to infer relative source locations (i.e., whether Siachen's sources lie north of Gilgit town/river).

Describes 'the fourth region, Gilgit, is the northern part of the state' and notes it is mountainous and linked by the Karakoram Highway—giving a regional location for Gilgit within the broader northern area.

Place the described 'northern part (Gilgit)' on a map relative to Karakoram features (from other snippets) to assess whether Siachen is north of that Gilgit location.

Lists other Karakoram glaciers and notes some feed the Shyok, reinforcing that Siachen is part of a cluster of Karakoram glaciers that feed northeastern tributaries of the Indus system.

Using river flow directions and the indicated glacier-fed tributaries, map source areas (Karakoram/Siachen) vs. Gilgit river source to infer relative positions.
