Route No. 11.
From △ Bāgdoār (Kāmāon) to Mīlum (Kāmāon).

A principal route, passable for horses, though at
some spots with great difficulty.

Literature: Tables of Routes and Stages, p. 55.—Year-
book of the Panjāb for 1854, part II., p. 117.

Maps: Indian Atlas, sheet 66.—Strachey's Kāmāon and
Gārhvāl.

△ Bagdoār, 30° 22′; 79° 50′; 7,518 ft., on the
right bank of the Gōri river—Continue along
the right bank of the Gōri river—△ Sāngtāri
(here is a spot most difficult to be crossed for
horses; great care must be taken not to injure
them)—Continue (in June) across snow-bridges
for 2 to 3 hours—△ Māpa, on the right bank
of the Gōri river—△ Jelābu (9,750 ft.).

Rilkōt (10,072 ft.), 6 hours' march from △ Bāgdoār,
under the most favourable circumstances; but
it is impossible to fix a time; this depends on
the season, and on the quantity of horses to
be brought up here. Scanty supplies procurable
in Rilkōt—Continue up the Gōri valley along
its right side — Mārtoli (10,955 ft.), near the
confluence of the Gōri and Mārtoli rivers (level
of the confluence 10,320 ft.)—Māpan (10,843 ft.),
4 miles S. of Mīlum—Pāchu (a beautiful view
of the Nānda Dēvi peak, 25,749 ft., from here)
—Cross the Gōri river on a narrow and bad
bridge (horses have to swim across).

Mīlum, 30° 34′·6; 79° 54′·8? (11,265 ft.). This
is the highest village in the Gōri valley and
the most important one of Johār.

Route No. 12.
From Bāgesar (Kāmāon) to Kāthi (Kāmāon).

Bāgesar, 29° 47′; 79° 45′, with a bāngalo (2,730 ft.)
on the right bank of the Sārju river—Continue
along the right bank of the Sārju river—3 miles
from Bāgesar cross the Lahūr river—7 miles
from Bāgesar cross the Kanalgārh river (bridges
are over both; but as the torrents often carry
them away during the rains, it should be ascer-
tained before-hand, whether they are in good
condition, the fords not being passable, when
the rivers are swollen.

Kabkōt (3,854 ft.), near the right bank of the
Sārju river, 15 miles from Bāgesar—Dhurām—
Hālong, on the right bank of the Sārju river—
Pass a narrow gorge (road occasionally very
difficult for horses).

Sūring (5,707 ft.), near the right bank of the
Sārju river, 5 hours' march from Kabkōt—

steep; road rocky and bad)—△ Tāti, a hamlet,
3¼ hours' march from Sūring (no provisions are
procurable)—Cross the Dākri pass (9,655 ft.),
where a fine view of the Trissūl and Nānda
Khāt snow-peaks presents itself.
