Text Appearing Before Image:
e irregular conduct has caused scandal in their com-munity, and who have been consequently condemned to livefor a time as hermits in the heart of Nature. It is to betrusted they give no cause for jealousy to the mountaindemons. Immediately opposite, closing a vista, rises Pandim(22,020 feet), its tilted cliffs cloaked in a thick icy hood ;a splendid horn, cut off by the castellated crags and deepgap of the Guicha La from Kangchenjunga and Kabru.Those peaks are in part concealed by intervening spurs,and do not show to advantage. To the west over thegentle slopes of Jongri rises the long but tame outline ofthe Kang La ridge. Its glens may detain the scientificeye of a geologist, who discovers in them hangingvalleys, but the lover of the picturesque will not lingerhere. For him the panorama has only two sides, it leavestwo impressions, the peak of Pandim, and the greenexpanse of the foothills towards Darjiling, seen as througha gateway, between the steep walls of the lower KathongValley.
