Using the 100-m Effelberg Radio-Telescope and with the help of the new Lei- den/Dwingeloo/Argentinian/Bonn(LAB) HI survey we detected a population of clumps in the outer parts of our Galaxy. These show a prominented two component structure with the cold component having TK in < 700K. The column density is of the ordrer of a few times 1019 cm-2 , the diameter is several tens of parsec and their mass is of the order of several hudred solar masses or even less. Due to the similarity of the physical parameters we have cocluded that we are proding clouds identical to the ones detected by Lockman(2002) in the inner Galaxy.
