372 .   APPENDIX

this camp is computed through Peaks 77., 87 and 90, with the following values of longitude :-

Through Peak 77 from Camp 19, resulting longitude 76° 42' 1"

„   Peak 87   21   76 42 16

„   Peak 90   „   21   ,;   „   76 42 14
The mean of the three values has been accepted.

Camp 23. Lat. 36° 49' 12", long. 76° 31' 53". The longitude of the camp is computed through Peaks 77, 94 and 96 and B end of Camp 24, with the following values of longitude :-

The longitude deduced through Peak 94 has been rejected on account of the latitudes of this peak deduced in the two camps differing by 1' 26". The mean of the other three values has been accepted.

Camp 109. Lat. 34° 53' 51", long. 81° 41' 10". On the authority of Captain Deasy this camp has been taken as identical with Camp 15 of 1896. The longitude is computed through Peaks 36 and 56 of Camp 11 and 142 of Camp 3, both of 1896. The resulting longitudes are :--

The latitude comparison at the three peaks is satisfactory, but the observation to Peak 142 has been noted as doubtful, the longitude through this peak has therefore been rejected. The mean of the other two has been accepted. The latitude, longitude and height of this camp are more reliable than those of Camp 15 of 1896. The values of Camp 109 have therefore been adopted in the latter camp.

Camp 110. Lat. 34° 57' 51", long. 81° 49' 33". The longitude of this camp is computed through the following points :-

Through Peak 36 of Camp 11 of 1896, resulting long. 81° 49' 32"
