1865.—I travelled in the Achalzi and Imeritia dividing range, 
then in Abchasia, and by the Nachar Pass to Elbruz. The 
following are the interesting heights ascertained in this tour :— 
Nachar Pass, 9617 ft. 
The northern side of Elbruz, Phanerogams occurred higher 
than 12,000 (determined 12,345 ft.), the highest point 
reached was 14,295 ft., in the névé. 
During the journey in 1867 to the sources of the Kura, in the 
Armenian highlands, and in 1866 to Talysch, the heights which 
concern us here were not touched. Those also in the journey 
in 1870 to Talysch and Transcaspia only touched the lower 
alpine zone in their highest points in Suant-Gäu, 8000 ft. 
1871. — This year many heights were ascertained for the 
first time, and they all refer to the Armenian and Karabagh 
highlands. Preliminary reports concerning the whole of my 
Caucasian journeys during the years 1864, 1865, 1867, 1871, 
1875-1877, 1879, and 1885 were issued in the corresponding 
volumes of Petermann's * Mittheilungen, and in its Ergänzungs- 
heften, Nos. 36 and 85.
