SUMMARY:
Camped again at Chorten Korra near Trashiyangsi with unsettled weather and heavy rain; the local Dzongpen was very attentive. Sent cine film and dispatched a man with post and a cable home. Tried fishing on both days without success due to conditions.

7th September. CHORTEN KORRA (TRASHIYANGSI) 6 miles.
Ht. 5825'. (B.P. 201.8 Temp 67°). Weather again pretty unsettled. Rained in the morning and again in the afternoon and evening. Camped in our old place, a very good camp. Tyangsi Dzongpen very attentive.

No 10 cine film sent.

Sent off a man with a small post and cable home. He leaves here tomorrow morning. Saw no birds on the way down. The path is awful the first half of the way, and is mainly a watercourse. Took out the fishing rod in the afternoon and tried with spoon and atta bait, but nothing happened. Intend to try again with worm bait tomorrow.
