40 NO'fES AND QUERIES M/3 Lao wlcm. Easy of ascent on the East it baH the Hlmrp ridges characte1:istic of 1angki1, notably one running ~~pproximately N. and S. well described as the Kin or San Kom D11p (fl'"Jr1lJI'lllJ). On its upper ridges a beautiful little blue Gentian is plentiful in April n.ncl May and near itA summit an Alli~~·m, not yet identified. On the 13 Dec· 1933 there were many old tracks o£ lwt'inr; on its summit. The South h'ill, 1: 9200,000 maps, Doi Salcet (lilfltH!::I~I'l). Visitors must enquire for Doi 111n Ol' Mawn Lu.n (!1lJCJ1H11hl). From information I received from the Survey Dept. they are well aware o£ the latter name, and tdthough I have no t1nthority to s11y RO, the clumge is probably due to another Doi 11111 in the Ch.iengmai district just South of Doi Clu1Wrn Hot (lilBUIDBlJ11~). 'I'he locally known Doi Suket is a small hill near the Amphm's comt of: that name. It is well shown on the 1 : 64.000 maps. It would take about five dn.ys £rom Ohiengmai to ascend Doi Lttn, it being dependent on t.hc time of the year how far one ciLn take motor transport up the Me Awn valley. I have not been higher than the M'ieng villages on its slopes. The track up crosses the divide between Ban Kun Me Awn (llJJilCJhl) ' aud Ban Kun Me Chesn.wn (!19J"Jrtni) "" and one should allow three days from the latter villnge. 'l.'hese hill-tops are seldom visited and it nw.y be necessu,ry to cut through much dense growth in places; thus I found the ascent of Langka easy going in 1938 but very diffiunlt in the rains of 1938, and this chang~ was presumrtbly due to fire in 1937/8 as it was a surprise to the Meo guide. Finally the Survey Dept. maps will he found very accuru te as regn.rds the position and elevation of the three hills; all that one might suggest is that when 11 change of name is considered necessn.ry, the local name should be added in brackets as is customary when changing the name of a street: Lat. and Long.
