five hours before we had crossed the worst of those treacher-
ous scarps; yet the direct distance was scarcely more than a
mile.
After reaching the head of the inlet and ascending the
valley for a couple of miles, we found a small patch of level
ground where cultivation had, since the earthquake, been
resumed by a few Roshani families. Even here, some 500
feet above the level of the lake, dread was felt of the con-
tinued rise of the lake's waters. After a day's welcome halt
at this pleasant spot we moved up the valley to the south,
and on approaching the Langar pass were fortunately met
by Kirghiz transport which the Commandant of Pamirski
Post had kindly sent to assist us. So by August 20 the
previously unsurveyed Langar pass, an almost level talus-
covered saddle, was crossed at an elevation of about 15,400
feet. Next day we arrived at the western extremity of the
great Yeshil-köl lake and gained a fine view of it from the
Buruman ridge which separates the open Alichur Pamir
from the head of the main valley of Shughnan. Here we had
set foot once more on an ancient route traversing the
'Roof of the World'.
