as the Manasarovar, and from which, to the W.N.W., the channel slopes down to
the Rakas-tal.
So far as to station N:o 94 the channel contained brackish water from the
springs. It was, however, only a very narrow water-course, which at many places
could be jumped over. Only at such narrow places is the current visible. At other
places it widens out to basins where no current is seen at all.
The bed is bounded by very well developed fluviatile terraces 2 or 2.5 m.
high, and becoming lower, 1 m. and less, in the direction of Rakas-tal. They con-
sist of horizontally deposited gray clay. The dry portions of the bed are lightly in-
crusted with salt. The fresh condition of the terraces, and their sharp edges prove
that it cannot be long ago since water flowed down the whole way. Only at Chiu-
gompa and downwards, a little beyond the bridge, is the channel narrow and pierces
the conglomerate. In the direction to the Rakas-tal the country becomes more and
more open.
