Indian Frontier Rising: view of the Tor Ghar Range, from Fort Bara, showing the position of the Sapri (Ghuzdarra) Pass, 1898. 'From a Sketch by Lieutenant-Colonel H. H. Hart, C.R.E., 1st Division, Tirah Expeditionary Force. The top of the Pass (which was crossed by the troops of the 1st Division under General Symons on Dec. 12 to 14) is distant about sixteen miles as the crow flies, and is 5100 feet above sea-level. It is believed that this route has never previously been traversed by any European'. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
