Summary[edit]

Description
English: (Translated from German via Google Translate) The Shepherd's place Milam is located close to where the Gori flows out of the Milam glacier at 3431 m (11250'). The inhabitants of the Gorithales who come here from June to September 81) (from Munsyari) belong to the mixed race of the Bhot-Rajputs, are proud, lazy, and very freedom-loving; It is not appropriate to act bossily towards them. Due to the barter trade with Tibet carried out in Milam, there is great prosperity; the Tibetans bring salt and soda from their salt lakes over the glaciated border passes on thousands of pack sheep and goats; such a sheep load ofsalt weighs about 30 pounds (approx. 15 kilos); You exchange 2 parts by weight of salt for 3 parts of barley, 7-8 parts of salt for 1 part of butter. In Milam there is no "bungalow", but the Europeans who come here are given the facilities shown on plate XV (This image).
