Uttarakhand 105 visit Tibet and the lower hills and plains, crossing the lofty passes of Johar and Darma. The approach of these droves of Laden arrivals is announced by clouds of dust, by the peculiar whistling of the drivers, and by the noise of numerous little bells tied to the necks of the ani- mals, the tinkling of which sounds pleasantly along the mountain Toad. These are some of the pleasures of a journey to the inte- riors of Himalayas which is worth undertaking.
