SUMMARY:
Brief note on Gunkarah Gompa, a small monastery linked by tradition to a halt by Guru Rimpooche en route to Tibet. Describes extensive burning at Selinda visible from camp with multiple fires, and records temperature and other measurements.
CONTENT:
L. p 32. Gunkarah Gompa
Small monastery amongst some
cliffs just above the monastery.
Guru Rimpooche is supposed to have
halted whilst he was on his way
to Tibet.
L. p 23. Burning of Selinda, very
extensive. From camp this
evening could see a dozen fires raging
in different directions. Sad to
think of the destruction to the forests
it ensures.
