[ [F] All the heights given, other than those taken from the Ordnance Survey, are deduced from observations made with a novel and portable form of mercurial barometer, which can be coiled up and carried in a small tin box in the pocket. As we were unable to make comparative readings with a second instrument at a known height, the barometrical readings are, in every case, calculated from the pressure at sea-level being assumed to be 30 inches. This makes the heights, as a rule, about 800 feet lower than if 31 inches were taken as the normal sea-level pressure.

[ [I] In Drew's Jummoo and Kashmir Territories, p. 370, also Alpine Club Journal, vol. xvii. p. 38, there is a sketch showing a mountain supposed to be K2. Drew also has drawn K2 in No. 3 Isometric view of the mountains on the north-east of the Indus river. When Drew made these sketches the existence of the Mustagh tower, which rivals K2 in height, was unknown; moreover both from Turmik, and also from near Gilgit where the Isometric view No. 3 was taken, the Mustagh tower would be almost exactly in front of K2.

[ [J] There is a drawing of this peak on page 119 of Sir W. M. Conway's Climbing in the Himalaya.
