From a fresh observation and taking the mean, I find the elevation of Nurtung to be 3,302 feet.

On enquiry I find that Rulung is one march off, that the country is similar, and that pines grow there to a large size.  From this place to Koppilee river it is said to be nine marches.  A fuqueer from Cutch said several, six to ten—­and as the distance is nearly fifty miles and the ground difficult, he was probably right.

You then come to the Meekir country.  To get into Tooly Ram’s country would require at least nine days, but with loaded people probably twelve or fifteen.  The station between Rulung and the Koppilee is Hush Koorah.  Thermometer varies here from 45 to 85 in the sun, in shade from 52 to 74.

November 13th.—­Left for the Borpanee.

The country traversed is easy, consisting chiefly of undulations covered with grassy vegetation.  There are no steep ascents nor descents; and the only obstacle is the Borpanee.  The march is of about six hours’ duration.

Butea suffruticosa is very common about Nurtung, but ceases soon after leaving its environs.  All the valleys near this place are cultivated:  the ground being now inundated in proportion.  Dipsacus valeriana continued, and a short distance from Nurtung pines become very common.  Thence the country became more undulated and scarcely a tree was met with:  Hedysarum gyrans commenced shortly after leaving Nurtung:  a sure sign of decreasing elevation.  The country subsequently improved, being more diversified with wood:  firs became abundant, Callicarpa arborea commenced.  About Nonkreen, a small village to the east, close to our path the trees became mostly different.  Kydia appeared, a tree like the mango, and some others unknown to me.  Bauhinia, Randia, Phyllanthus Embelica, and a stunted arboreous Symplocos, Anthistiria arundinacea common, with chesnuts (Castaneae).
