— Off by six; a beautiful morning; path still up the stream, which has its source in the Saiking Shan, our destination. We stepped out merrily through scenery similar to that of yesterday. After about five miles walking, we came to a break in the mountain wall of the opposite bank and through it caught our first glimpse since we had left Omi of the stupendous vertical walls of the Saiking, towering 6000 feet above our present level. But this break itself was the rift through which the recent sp...ate had made its way. An 124 MOUNT OMI AND BEYOND avalanche of huge angular blocks had rolled down, crossed the stream and surged up on the opposite shore, on which we stood, blocking our path and having to be climbed over. The Saiking mountain is formed of a mass of compact limestone, but fragments from its sides have doubtless yielded the talus which forms the slope at the foot of which runs the Chunshui Ho ; and a torrent from its flanks had evidently, in its course to the river, washed out soil from under and led these loose fragments of the talus to come tumbling down the slope as we saw them in all their fresh disorder.
