The gradients of the Harnai route are not quite so steep as those of the Mushkāf. Should either way be blocked or carried away by landslips or floods, the other would be available. The Harnai line passes through the Chappar rift, a precipitous gorge in a great mass of limestone. The old Bolān gorge way of the caravans was dangerous because of the sudden spates which at times filled all the bottom between the cliffs.
