ON THi: GEORGIA MIUTARY ROAD 



The pass of Dariel contains the Georgia mihtary road, running from Vladikavkaz to 

 Tiflis. The pass, shut in by lofty mountain walls sometimes 6,000 feet high, is of singular 

 beauty and often so narrow that there is just room for the road and the turbulent River 

 Terek, which runs alongside. Today a regular automobile service from Vladikavkaz to 

 Tiflis is maintained through the pass.
