The Tera Pass is the primary route connecting Logar and Paktia provinces in Afghanistan.
The pass was unimproved until 2006, when construction of a paved surface was completed as part of the ongoing international reconstruction effort.
Snow tends to persist into the summer months on the north-facing side of the mountain ridge.
The pass is relatively secure, owing to the presence of ANP checkpoints, daunting geography and paved surface, which makes IED attacks more difficult.
