Clarification

@CAPTAIN MEDUSA: Yarubagar vs Yaruphant - Is this really where this is? There is no place name I can find for the former, and google maps has the latter. 28°19′51″N 84°54′25″E / 28.330967°N 84.906894°E / 28.330967; 84.906894 Also, this passage, "As a result of the shifting, the paths in Sirdibas and Kerauja vanished," where is that? How does it relate to this passage? A 195m metal path along a cliff at Yaru Bagar now allows mule trains and porters to connect the Tsum Valley and Larkya La for the first time after the earthquake. ^[1]

Clarify which town (Sirdibas and Kerauja) is in the Tsum Valley, and where Larkya La is. Clarify what Yarubagar is (a town?). --evrik ^(talk) 16:28, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
