We made camp at 3:30 at
TA-MON-ho. The night was
cloudy with a few rain
drops. Ontroka valley way
large Pachyana, Elongp (mulc)
+ R. norvegica, one Windasthly.
Just a number of camels were
seen in field as plowing; then
are the first we have seen since
Sichwaning. The cattle here are
without horns but small
like Indian ones now; the
valley is given over to rice
fields widely terraced, now
planted to wheat in winter;
On the way we saw a pair of
giant lanergyes, some large
mergansers + several fidda
geese. The people seen
in the villages are all dressed
in blue serge, no other color
being in evidence, though few
These people are all Musos
