OCR Text
By the order of Colonel J. T. Walker, Mr. G. W. E. ATKINSON prepared, in 1875, a very good *Gazetteer Map of Kumaun and Hundes*, Pl. XV.¹ The lakes are here better than in any other map of the time, although the islands in Rakas-tal are missing. This lake is called in Tibetan, Long Cho, and the sacred lake Chomapang. Five of the eight monasteries are entered, and called Jiu, Gozul, Thui, Sarlung and Jhankeb. The river Rilchen Chin of the map is my Ri-chung-chu, the Nek Chin is Nima-pendi, the Tak Chin is Tage-tsangpo, the Some Chu is Samo-tsangpo or Samo-chu, the Bhachong Chin is Pachung-chu. Thus almost all the really existing rivers are very correctly laid out, which is the result of the Pundits in 1868. The route between Thok-jalung and the Manasarovar follows the valley of Pachung and crosses a pass called Sar-lung. As my route over Surnge-la follows a more easterly river, it is obvious that there are two parallel roads over the mount-ains in these regions. There is no connection between the two lakes, for there was none at the time of the visit of the Pundits. But still the Satlej is shown as issuing from the Rakas-tal, for we have seen that Nain Sing in 1866 had represented it so; however, it must have been a mistake.²
