Pursued by Red Chinese troops struggling against the harsh elements of the Himalayas, the Dalai Lama is shown on the fourth day of his flight to freedom. The 23-year-old ruler, wearing spectacles, is aboard the white horse. At this point, the escape party is crossing the Zsagola pass in Southern Tibet on March 21, after fleeing Lhasa.
