More important for its intended users, it has been redrawn in the style ofGSGS2733 (except that the pavé symbol has been dropped (presumably the information wasnot available); the sheetlines are aligned with those of 2733.

120. Sh 9, Annapurna. 1:100k, 1993. Has the look of a German walking map, except thatthere is a separate tint for cultivated land, and the contour values and intervals turn out to besomewhat greater than one would find in the Alps.
