the secondary pass of *Lamlung-la*, being 5,145 m. high. The difference in altitude
thus is 376 m. and the rise is at a rate of 1:17.3. On the western side we had
8.8 km. to *Camp CCCCXI, Kibuk-hle,* at an altitude of 4,689 m., or 456 m. below
the pass, the descent being as 1:19.3. From a hill in the region, *Tashi-Tsering,*
a place obviously called after the name of a nomad here grazing his flocks, Pan. 497A
and B, Tab. 92, was drawn. Here we again obtain a good view of the lake. The
*Shakangsham* is in sight to the N. 26° W., and the *Targo-gangri* to the E. S. E.
*Domar* is the little ridge on the southern shore which was also to be seen on
Pan. 496 B, Tab. 92. Its appearance from *Hlakelung* is shown on Pan. 498, Tab. 93,
where the beach-lines along its base are readily visible. The same return again
along the base of the hill, *Tashi-Tsering,* as seen on Pan. 499, Tab. 93.
According to this calculation, the whole road has a length of 225.2 km. On
the construction map we found 229.3.
