Bridge over the main river, the path leading up to Glow lake eventually. Other path stays on the right bank of the river possibly leading over 3500m pass to Hawai, capital of Anjaw district (according to Russian military map and some local map as well). We initially wanted to try to get to Hawai by that path, but it seemed too long and uncertain so turned to Glow lake. That path was used up to 1994, when road following Lohit river was built for cars to get to Hawai and Walong. So it might almost disappear in jungle as most people moved from jungle down to Wakro ... I hope someone will  try if that path is still usable ... Bring machete!
