CHAPTER XXXII.

FROM CHUNIT-TSO TO USHÜ.

We now have to consider, in chronological order, my sixth crossing of the Transhimalaya, being the fifth if we reckon from east to west. This route, from Camp CCCLXXI on the western shore of Chunit-tso to Camp CCCXCV, Ushü, near the Tsangj5o, has been described in Vol. III, p. 316 et seq. It now remains to say a few words about the distances, the gradients and the panoramas.

Camp CCCLXXI, Sninkuk, has an altitude of 4,747 m. On Aril 3rd, we travelled south 11.3 km. to Camp CCCLXXII, Kemar, at 4,846 m. The rise is 99 m. and the rate of ascent I :114. Pan. 451, Tab. 84, is a view to the N. W., north and N. E. from the latter camp.

On Apil 4th, the journey continued S. S. W. and south for 4 km. to the

pass, Nima-lung-la, 4,882 m. high , a rise of 36 m. at a rate of 1:   . South of
the pass we had 10.8 km. to Camp CCCLXXIII, 4,784 m. high, being a fall of 98 m. at a rate of i : I i o. On these two marches we crossed, therefore, a rather low range, running east and west.

Pan. 453A and B, Tab. 85, is drawn from Camp CCCLXXIII. To the S. 17°E. is a mountain called Ri-selna, to the S. 33° W. our road of the next day continues to the valley of Buptsang-tsango. To the S. S. W., south, S. W. and west is the N. E. side of the mighty Lunkar Range. To the N. W. and north from where we have arrived, are moderate, rounded hills.

On April 5th, we covered i 6.4 km. S. W. over very gradually rising ground, ascending only 2 2 m. to Camp CCCLXXIV, at an altitude of 4,806 m., the rate being I : 745 only. Pan. 454, Tab. 85, is taken from the latter camp. The greatest part of the Lunkar Range is now hidden behind lower hills in front of it.

On April 6th, our road went S. S. W. and south for 9.8 km. to Camp CCCLXXV, Monlam-kongma, at 4,82 2 m., or a rise of 16 m. at a rate of only 1:613. We were now in the valley of the Buptsang-tsangpo which we had to follow several days to the S. S. E. up to Samye-la. The panorama, 457A and B, Tab. 86, taken from Camp CCCLXXV, is of great orographical interest as it gives us a very vivid
