MOLO to LILUNG. From Molo, which is on the R bank of the River, cross at the village by a long cantilever bridge to the L bank, and ascend immediately opposite, the cliff. This is rounded and the path falls to the river side. Thence the path is good, through forest, with occasional open stretches of 100 yards or so to m 8, where a bridge crosses the Lilung Chu. The side valley streams are all small except two, crossed by bridges. Follow down the R bank to m 9, where camp can be made in a clearing. The Lilung valley runs in a rough direction of 40° from Molo here. Follow down the R. bank on a good path, mostly through pine forest, crossing one very large side valley stream by a bridge at m 11. The country gradually becomes dryer as one goes down. Finally Lilung is reached at m 17. Here the river is in two branches, and can be crossed to the village by two cantilever bridges. The valley from m 9 gradually turns N-wards, and enters the Tsangpo at a bearing of 330°.
