Tab. 89, was sketched, showing to the north and N. E. the *Lombo Range,* the name
of which is, of course, the same as *Lunpo,* though it is a different range.

On *April 26th,* we travelled 17.7 km. south and S. W. to *Camp CCCXCIII*
where the altitude is 4,656 m., a fall of 447 m. or at a rate of 1:40. On the road
the little pass of *Kule-la* is crossed at 5,088 m.

To *Semo-ku, Camp CCCXCIV,* we had, *April 27th,* only 3.5 km. S. S. W.,
descending 60 m. to an altitude of 4,596 m., the rate of fall being 1:58.

The last day's march on this section was 12 km. to the S. W. and W. N. W.
to *Camp CCCXCV, Ushü.* Here, at the southern base of *Chomo-uchong,* we were
practically on the same level, descending only to 4,542 m. and again rising to 4,563 m.
at *Ushü.* Pan. 481, Tab. 89, gives an idea of the little village of this name.

According to this calculation, the whole road had a length of 298 km. According
to the measurement along the road on the construction map, it was 289.3 km.
