From N. 5° E.¹ to N. 14° E. the *Targo-gangri* is again visible, on a diminished
scale. To its right follow the mountains to the east and S. E. of the lake. To
the S. 30° E. is the valley of *Kyangdam-tsangpo;* to the S. 8° E. is the highest peak
of the *Do-tsänkang* Mountain,² and to the right of it some distant hill and a small
hill in our vicinity. The dark mountain at the right end of Pan. 183c is the same
as the one to the S. 51° W. on Pan. 183a. The only difference is that the sun had
been sinking in the meantime and the shadows covered these mountains before I had
completed the panorama all around.

On *May 4th,* our road goes S. W. and S. S. W. for 18.7 km. to *Camp CLIV.*
The first 4.7 km. take us up to the pass *Dunka-la* with an altitude of 5,030 m.
The rise is, therefore, 291 m., or 1 : 16. *Camp CLIV, Sabuk,* is at 4,947 m., or
83 m. lower than the pass, and the fall 1 : 171. From *Sabuk,* Pan. 184, Tab. 33,
is drawn showing a glimpse of *Targo-gangri* to the N. N. E.

On *May 5th,* our road continues south and S. S. W. The first 3.7 km. take
us to the pass *Bäng-la,* 5,237 m. high, and 290 m. above *Camp CLIV.* The ascent
is rather stiff or as 1 : 12.7. From the pass we have 7.2 km. to *Camp CLV, Angjum*
with an altitude of 5,186 m.,³ or 51 m. below the pass, a rate of fall as 1 : 141.
From *Bäng-la* Pan. 185a and b, Tab. 33, was sketched, giving a strong impression
of rather massive and mighty ranges to the west and north, all belonging to the
*Transhimalayan System.* The snow-covered range to the west may be a part of,
or rather the eastern end of, the *Kanchung-gangri.* The *Gangri-do* with the
snow-covered *Gablung-pu* appears in a still more foreshortened perspective than
hitherto. To the N. 11° E. and N. 19° E. is the *Targo-ganrgi* in a still more
diminished scale. To the left or west of it, N. 6° E., is a mountain which seems to
be a range parallel to and situated just west of the *Targo-gangri.* To the right
or east of the latter, one sees the depression in the northern continuation of which
the *Dangra-yum-tso* is situated.

The next section of the road again takes us over the continental water-parting
in *Angden-la, May 6th.* The pass is double, the first saddle being 5,634 m. high,
the second is 5,643 m. high. The distance to the latter, from *Camp CLV* is 6.4 km.,
the elevation 457 m., and the rate 1 : 14. From the pass to *Camp CLVI, Kyam,*
or *Kiam* at 4,954 m., the distance is 12.6 km. Here the ground sinks 689 m. or at a
rate of 1 : 18.3.

Pan. 187, Tab. 34, is taken from the first threshold of *Angden-la,* giving
a last view of the *Targo-gangri* and the world of mountains to the west and S. W.
