Scope and content

SUMMARY:
Records Primula pumilio and a Viola species near Tromda, followed by notes on the easy 16-mile route along the right bank to Nang Dz, which stands on a rock with cultivation and some stores. Mentions passing a village halfway and seeing Thunkang on the left bank, noted as the birthplace of the old Dalai Lama.

CONTENT:

  1. Primula pumilio seen on a water channel bank in Tromda, just coming into flower.

  2. Viola sp. Tromda.

TROMDA to NANG DZ. 16m. The road is easy the whole way, just fit for pony transport, though coolies are usually supplied. The river here is pretty straight and the path follows the R. bank all the way. A small village is passed about half way, but otherwise all cultivation is on the L. bank. Every mile or two a few sand dunes are crossed. Nang Dz stands on top of a rock 500 ft above the river (river here makes a big bend northwards). There is considerable cultivation and some stores are available.

Ludlow p. 29.
about 6-7 miles from Tromda we saw on the left bank the village of Thunkang - the birthplace of the old Dalai Lama - etc.
