the secondary pass of Lamlung-la, being 5,145 m. high. The difference in altitude thus is 376 m. and the rise is at a rate of i : 17.3. On the western side we had 8.8 km. to Camft CCCCXI, Kibuk-hle, at an altitude of 4,689 m., or 456 m. below the pass, the descent being as I :i9.3. From a hill in the region, Tashi- Tsering-, a place obviously called after the name of a nomad here grazing his flocks, Pan. 497A and B, Tab. 92, was drawn. Here we again obtain a good view of the lake. The Shakangsham is in sight to the N. 2 6° W., and the Targo g-angri to the E. S. E. Domar is the little ridge on the southern shore which was also to be seen on Pan. 496 B, Tab. 92. Its appearance from Hlakelung is shown on Pan. 498, Tab. 93, where the beach-lines along its base are readily visible. The same return again along the base of the hill, Tashi-Tsering-, as seen on Pan. 499, Tab. 93.
According to this calculation, the whole road has a length of 225.2 km. On the construction map we found 229.3.
