We had camped on the low ground at Aru, just across the bridge, but about half a mile on, and upon a grassy plateau there is an ideal camping-ground facing down the Lidar Valley, towards the peaks which rise behind Pahlgam. Want of water is the only drawback to this spot, but if mussiks are carried, water can easily be brought from a small nullah towards Lidarwat.

It was well into the evening, and the sun had just set, throwing a glorious rosy flush over the snows which surround the Lidar Valley, when we came to the picturesque bridge which crosses the stream at Bejbehara.

The road became somewhat hilly, and at one steep zigzag the nerves of Jane failed her slightly and she dismounted, rightly judging that a false step on the part of the cream-coloured courser would be followed by a hurried descent into the Lidar.

The whole camp was sunk in sleep and the young dawn was waking upon the peaks when I turned in. The days that were left we spent in wandering up the Lidar River to the hills that are the first ramp of the ascent to the great heights. We found the damp corners where the mushrooms grow like pearls the mushrooms of which she said "To me they have always been fairy things.

Surely his bones can hardly be dryer and colder now than they were then! There must be strange ecstasies in such a life wild visions in the dark, or it could never be endured. And so, in marches of about ten miles a day, we came to Pahlgam on the banks of the dancing Lidar. There was now only three weeks left of the time she had promised.

We consigned him and the elusive "chota resident," who was in command of the rest of the party, to perdition, and decided to pursue the even tenor of our way to the Lidar Valley. The upper reaches of the Jhelum tire not wildly or excitingly lovely. The narrowed waters, like sweet Thames, run softly between quiet British banks, willow veiled.

We had arranged to start with a party of three other boats up the river, visiting Atchibal with our friends, and then going up the Lidar Valley, while they retraced their way to Srinagar. The most popular bachelor in Kashmir was appointed commodore, and deputed to set the pace and arrange rendezvous.

"Each beauteous flower, Iris all hues, roses, and jessamine Reared high their flourished heads." Soon the valley narrowed, and closer on our left roared the Lidar, foaming over its boulders in wild haste to find peace and tranquil flow in the broad bosom of Jhelum.

There are many other important active sensor classes, three of which are active acoustics, lidar and magnetic anomaly detectors. The practical application of lidar is a relatively recent development enabled by advances in laser, power management, and data processing technologies. Lidar detects shape directly and shape fluctuations such as vibration and motion and has proven very hard to spoof.

The river below Islamabad is quite narrow, and hemmed in between high mudbanks. Here we found the "Baltic Fleet," but, knowing that our fugitive friends must have already reached Atchibal, we held to our intention of going up the Lidar. Having tied up to a remarkably smelly bank, which was just lofty enough to screen our heated brows from any wandering breeze, we landed to explore.
