Detail of map 2 showing area west of Kashgar and south-west of Tash-malik with Stein's several routes to the city. Note the zig-zag nature of his route along the Yamad-gar river during the second expedition, where he had to leave the river due to the steep walls either side and hike over various ranges through passes east of the river, while always trying to return to it. Note the similar situation to the far west where he had to go up and down ridges by the Ulugh-art dawan (pass).
