the first half of the v^ay leads southwest, then due west. On 

 the fresh snowy morning of February 7th, 1901, we started 

 from Xah-an and walked over the granitic ten-ane of Nak-ieung ^' 

 up the Chhyoku-sa-chhi^^ (150 in) and the Yöl-häi-chhi-\ where 

 again the Hadong eye-gneiss cropped out with smaller eyes and 

 imperfect schistosity. Both passes trend K 10-20 S., cor- 

 responding to the stretched direction of the orthogneiss, and cul- 

 minate on the left in the high peak of Chon-chyöi-san^. Oar 

 road, however, ran from the north-east to the south-west, obli- 

 quely crossing the hiU-crests in the direction of the dislocations 

 which have successively thrown down the teiTane towards the 

 south-east, tlms creating the elongated cove of Teung-nyang*^, in 

 the coiTesponding dii-ection. The fault-scarp was typically ob- 

 sei'ved a little farther on at Sai-ehhi-jyang ", — a topographic ele- 

 ment of ^vide significance governing the general trend of the 

 south coast of Chyol-Ia-Do. Our road ran parallel to the ridge on 

 the shore of the shallow cove, on the opposite side of which we 

 saw at a distance disconnected but regular low ridges, stretching 

 parallel to the coast and making up the already-mentioned 

 peninsula of Heung-yang (see jMge 4^1
