To the north, on the westward continuation of the Akato-tagh, rise the peaks L3, M3, N3, and 03, belonging to the massive chain of the Ilve-tschimen. The peaks themselves were for the most part enveloped in clouds, but the snow-fields on their southern flanks gleamed out very conspicuously.

That on the left is especially accentuated. With regard to the stream, it forms an exception to the general rule that obtains in these east-west latitudinal valleys. Generally the stream runs nearer to the foot of the range on the north, as it does more particularly in the latitudinal valleys between the parallel ranges of the Arka-tagh, and as the stream does that flows down the eastern valley of Tschimen to the Ghas-nur. Here on the contrary, at Grischa and Kisil-bojan, the deeply trenched bed of the
