SUMMARY:
Notes quote Ludlow’s plan to work the Tawang Chu and Nyam Jang Chu basins in Tibet and revisit the Trashi Yangsi Valley. Permission was granted by the Maharaja and late-May sanction came from the Tibetan Government, prompting a rapid approach via the Dewangiri–Tawang Trade Route through the eastern Duars. The itinerary records travel from Srinagar to Dewangiri and onward to Trashigong in late June 1934.

Ludlow: "our plans are to work the basins of the Tawang Chu & Nyam Jang Chu in Tibet & then revisit our old haunts in the Trashi Yangsi Valley." P. 8

Ludlow. Ser. 13
In our 1933 journey East Bhutan had attracted us greatly. Botanically & ornithologically it seemed to offer a favourable field for further investigation. In 1934 ...
Permission to return to Bhutan was readily given by His Highness the Maharaja but it was not until late May that we received sanction from the Tibetan Government to cross the province of Mönyul.

Season being well advanced it was imperative to reach our collecting grounds without delay. The quickest road thither was by the Dewangiri - Tawang Trade Route & this we decided to take although we knew we were running considerable risks in attempting to penetrate the fever belt of the eastern Duars at this season of the year.

Journey from Srinagar on 13 June to Dewangiri reached 22 June.
Dewangiri to Trashigong - reached 29 June.
