The handful of travellers, who have not been discredited, are a pretty creditable lot if you ask me.

From a noted Swami in the Ramakrishna Order to a U.S. Supreme Court Justice, to Daya Mata, to His Holiness Sri Bharati Krishna Tirtha, to a Professor of Anthropology.....

As I said in an earlier posting:

"Throw out Notovitch AND his documents and you still have Yogananda, Swami Adhedenanda, Nicholas Roerich, Madame Caspairi, U.S. Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, Dr. Robert S. Ravicz professor of anthropology at California State University, Edward F. Noack, Sri Daya Mata, and His Holiness Sri Bharati Krishna Tirtha."

I know you said that these travellers' reports only appeared after Notovitch, but that doesn't prove anything. Notovitch was in the 1800's and was one of the very first travellers from the West to go into Tibet and report on his travels. Of course his would be one of the first reports.
