256   EXCURSION TO AJAGH-KUM-KÖL.

name of Dungluk is given, and to which both Mian and Dungluk-kuduk belong. Of the names which I have enumerated the Russian map gives Asghanlik, Dschan-bulak, Kosch-bulak, and Tatlik-bulak. In my list one name is missing, namely Tschukursaj, which occurs in both Carey and Bonvalot; probably this is identical with the Avras-saj. Between Dschahan-saj and the Tscharklik-su my men knew of only one transverse glen, namely Toghrak-tschap, and it lies, they told me, midway between the two glens mentioned.

A path leads from the twin lakes of Schor-köl to the pass in the Astin-tagh, from the north side of which the Asghanlik glen starts, while another path leads to the head of the Jajlik-saj. From the summit of the main range down to the Dungluk belt of vegetation is reckoned three days' journey, though they must be short days. From the Usun-schor a path leads to the baschi or head of the Dschan-bulak in the main range of the Astin-tagh.
