pass before reaching the Teri-nam Range. Still it is probable that we have to do
with a range beginning east of Tarok-tso and running S. E. and east. The Nima-
lung-la, 4882 m. high, should be situated on it. East of Saglang-hlungpa it runs
along the southern shore of Karong-tso, as may be seen on the coloured panorama
opposite p. 392, Vol. IV, where the Lapchung Range is also beautifully seen in the
background.
The next fold to the north borders to the south the valley of Soma-tsangpo,
and runs east and north of Karong-tso and Chunit-tso. I have crossed it in two
passes, viz., the Goa-la, 5298 m. high, and Satsot-la, 4805 m. high. The latter range
has about the same length as the former. They could be called the Karong Range
(the one on the southern shore of this lake), and the Soma Range (the one on the
southern side of the Soma valley).
Finally we have the Teri-nam Range between the Upper Soma-tsangpo and
the Teri-nam-tso. I crossed it in Dongchen-la, 5113 m. high. Its length to the
sharp bend of Soma-tsangpo is only 100 km., but if we add the section west of the
river, it becomes about twice as long. In front of it a very small range, the Domar,
runs along the very shore of the lake.
Leaving the central portion of Central Transhimalaya we now proceed to the
eastern portion of the system, i. e. so far as I know it, and continue our investigation
beyond the eastern limit of my expedition.
Of the Nien-chen-tang-la we have already talked, and have arrived at the
conclusion that it stretches far away to the west, thus belonging to the whole
eastern half of Central Transhimalaya as well as, probably, to the whole of Eastern
Transhimalaya.
North of the Nien-chen-tang-la is the Pabla Range. I first struck it in the
Sela-la, also called Se-la, 5506 m. high. To the W. S. W. the Chang-la-Pod-la,
5572 m., the Sha-la, and the Angden-la, 5643 m., are certainly situated on this range.
In the west the groups Lombo, Kungri-rakpa and Gablung seem to belong to it.
Its westernmost section thus comes in between the Kanchung-gangri and the Nien-
chen-tang-la and is parallel to them. From Chang-la-Pod-la it runs S. W.—N. E. to
Sela-la, and from there to Tengri-nor its stretching is nearly east. East of Sela-la
the Pabla Range carries the group of Kyar with some snow-covered peaks of mod-
erate height. The Tagrak-tsangpo has its source on the Pabla, and that is no doubt
also the case with Bara-tsangpo, Ota-tsangpo and Thama-tsangpo. In its eastern-
most section the range has been crossed by LITTLEDALE and DE LESDAIN. Between
their routes and Sela-la, the Pabla Range is perfectly unknown. When I reached
the pass, and even later, I felt sure that it was situated in the same range as
Khalamba-la, Goring-la and Dam-largen-la. As a result of more careful study of
the rest of my routes in Transhimalaya and of the other meager material existing,
