when approaching its western portion did we notice that
a long stretch along the south shore still held water. The
ground over which we had to move skirting this much-
shrunken lake bed to the north-west was more de-
pressing than any before. The detritus of the slopes
we descended was so soft that one's feet sank in deep.
Along the shore of the dried-up marsh this soil was broken
up by large holes full of 'Shor.' There was no sign of
life, plant, or animal to be seen anywhere except a big
vulture which kept sailing above us for a long time,
evidently in expectation of another victim. I wondered
which of our poor mute companions it would be.
At last in the evening, after crossing a low barren
spur, we found ourselves on the east edge of a broad
desolate valley coming straight down from the main snowy
range. For a short time the clouds lifted and allowed
me to sight again a few of the bold ice-capped pyramids
last seen from above Karanghu-tagh. But even more
keenly did we scan the wide gravel bed of the valley
for any trace of running water by which to camp. There
was none, and the outlook was gloomy indeed. With Lal
Singh I hurried ahead of the lagging caravan across the
detritus waste, and at last came upon a strip of ground
supporting scanty tufts of 'yellow grass.' On arrival I
set the despondent pony-men to work at a well, which,
luckily at a depth of some four feet, yielded very muddy
but drinkable water. How strange it seemed to have to
re-enact familiar desert scenes on these Tibetan uplands!
The ponies I had sent to a large lagoon visible near the
lake shore in the hope of their getting an adequate drink
earlier ; but at night they were brought back without having
touched a drop of its brackish water.
