to 4" high. There is a very fine androsace here No. 2235, a beautiful bright colour, the under surface of the petals contrasting with the upper. It grows to nearly a foot high. Our stores from Chusam arrived here with us - the wireless, batteries & some rations. A great number of people seem to be going to Sanga Chöling, many or all from the Kingkor. About 60 passed by here as I was shaving this morning, all carrying bundles of bamboo poles about 12-15 ft long. The majority were women, who are not allowed to do the Kingkor, but go from Totsen to the Sha ngu ha & Sincoveni. Ponies today took from 6.0 am till 2.0 pm. Here there is a strong wind, & the sun is shining most of the time - very pleasant for a change again. One can see the mist that comes up the Tsari Chu over the end of this
