366   APPENDIX

both Camp 3 and Camp 11. The peak is a prominent one, and Captain Deasy says there can be no doubt about its identification. The peak is, however, only fixed by a single triangle, so the value is unchecked. S. P. 14 Kvas also tried, but proved •to be doubtful, with a difference of 2' 10" in latitude and 1' 33" in longitude.

As there was no trigonometrical connection between Camp 11 and any of the subsequent camps, a fresh commencement was made at the closing end of Captain Deasy's work.

Caiiip 74. Lat. 34° 3' 43", long. 79 43' 1". The longitude was computed from Peak E. 32, which is the sanie as G. T. Tartary No. 2 Peak.

Then from Camp 74 the value was carried through Peak 256 to

Camp 67 ; but when the latitude of Camp 67 thus brought up was compared with its observed latitude, a différence of 1' 38" was found ; so Peak 256 was rejected, and Camp 74 stands by itself, there being no connection with any other camp.

Camp 63. Lat. 33° 59' 40", long. 80 51' 25". The longitude of this camp was computed by means of an azimuth taken to S. P. 6 from the camp which lay well to the south of the peal., and by the difference of latitude of the peak and the camp.

Camp 67. Lat. 33- 54' 53", long. 80° 33' 16" The longitude was computed from Camp 63 by azimuths and difference of latitudes through Peaks 220, 232, and 28, as below :-

Pk. 220 single ray from C. 67, triangle from C. 63

„ 232   C. 63   „   C. 67

28   „   C. 63   „   C. 67

The longitudes through above peaks agreed within 30", so their mean was accepted.

Canip 61. Lat. 33 53' 37", long. 81 11' 23". The longitude was computed through Peaks 212 and 193 :-

l'1:. 212 triangles from C. 63 and C. 61

„ 193   „   C. 63 and single ray from C. 61

The two values differed by 5" ; the mean was adopted.

Camp 57. Lat. 33° 47' 35", long. 81° 36' 8". The longitude was

computed through Peaks 195 and 193 :-

Pk. 193 triangles from C. 63 and C. 57

„ 195 single ray from C. 61 and triangle from C. 57

The two values differed by 2" ; the mean was adopted.

Camp 51. Lat. 33° 16' 31", long. 82' 1' 4". The longitude was

computed through Peaks 142, 162. 169, and 170 :-

Pk. 142 single ray from C. 57 and triangle from C. 51

„ 162 triangle from C. 57   „   C. 51

„ 169 single ray from C. 57   „   C. 51

„ 170   „   C. 57   C. 51
