CHAPTER XXXV.
FROM NGANGLARING-TSO TO TOKCHEN.
Only the last crossing of the Transhimalaya remains to be considered. It
begins from Camp CCCCXXXIX and comes to an end at the upper Tokchen,
Camp CCCCLI. The general description of this road was given in Vol. III,
p. 324 et seq.
The first day's journey, along the southern bank of Sumdang-tsangpo, June 27th,
took us 15 km. W. S. W. to Camp CCCCXL, Selipuk-gompa, where the altitude is
4,776 m.; the rise is therefore, 18 m., and the rate 1:833. Pan. 537A, B and C,
Tab. 101, is drawn from a point below the monastery. It shows to the N. E. and
N. 80° E. a part of the northern Surla Range, situated N. E. of Nganglaring-tso.
To the E. S. E. and S. E. is the Pedang Range. To the S. S. E., south, S. W. and
W. S. W. is the range, Lavar-gangri. To the W. N. W., north and N. E. is a ridge
of small hills bordering the Sumdang-tsangpo on the north.
On June 30th, the road proceeds S. W. and S. S. W. for 8.1 km. to Camp
CCCCXLI, at an altitude of 4,785 m. The rise is 9 m. only, and the rate 1:900.
The plain south of Nganglaring-tso is thus very level. Pan. 538A, B and C, Tab. 102,
is from Rartse. To the E. S. E. and S. E. it again shows the Pedang Range, after
which follows the Lavar Range the whole way around to the west. To the W. N. W.,
N. W. and north, moderate hills are visible in the region of Yumba-matsen, where
the fourth crossing came to an end. From N. E. to east we again see a part of
the northern Surla Range.
On July 1st, we travelled 22.8 km. S. S. W. to Camp CCCCXLII, Kyangyang,
at an altitude of 4,977 m., a rise of 192 m., at a rate of 1:119. On July 5th,
we travelled W. S. W. and W. N. W. for 5.7 km. to Kyangyang-la, with an altitude
of 5,157 m., the rise here being 180 m. and the rate 1:31.7. On the western side,
3.8 km. took us to Camp CCCCXLIII, Lavar-demar, 5,048 m. high, a fall of 109 m.
at a rate of 1:35. Pan. 540, Tab. 102, from the pass, shows to the S. 23° E. a moun-
tainous region called Sumdang-changma, probably situated between the Lavar and
the Ding-la Ranges. The snowy peaks of Pang-nagrong to the S. 10° E. obviously
