A link to a map of the trip would be useful when attempting to read the Chinese place names.

I just looked at the pdf but was not able to read the locality names on this laptop. I'm on the road and will try again at home with a larger monitor. Thanks for posting the link.
The map is not legible to me either - localities are listed witin the text. Haven't tested it out but I hope the pdf helps.
I'll let you know what I find. If the original publication is available, a higher resolution scan might be better.
see pages 143 and 145 of text of pdf
I tried these using my desk top monitor at home but even with enlargement, could not read some of the place names. We really need to see a high quality scan of the original image.
