- Description
- This is a small segment of a much larger map produced by George Helde, a YMCA missionary, on trips he took to the western hill country in 1921 and 1922. Helde had just lost his wife in childbirth at Mt. Emei when he set out in 1922. The annotations show locations on the route that Edward Beatty and Gilbert Vinden took on their journey to Mowkung in 1938 when they encountered Pandora the baby panda in Maoshuizi village on their return trip. Beatty and Vinden took the same route that Helde documented in 1920. See all items with this value
