A saddle-back connecting the Gandum-Kar mountain, a spur of the great
Garreh, with the latter. It is crossed by the Bakhtiari caravan road on its
7th stage from Isfahan, between miles 110 and 113. It has received its
significant name of “ Dead Lambs ” from some particular fatality which
occurred here to grazing flocks. The snow' lies for several of the winter
months to a depth of 20 to 30 feet and renders its crossing dangerous, if
not impossible, for certain periods of the year. This is, in fact, the chief
obstacle to the keeping open of the Bakbtiari caravan route, which cannot
avoid crossing it. It may be found impassable by laden animals any time
between the 25th December and the 10th of March.— {Arbuthnot, 1905.)
