The crowning point of the White Mountains
region of the Presidential range-s notable not only
for the grandeur OF its scenery but also for remark
able freaks of nature-the stern Old Man of the
Mountain, Echo Lake, the Flume and by no inean4
least in interest, Tuckerman's Ravne. the scene OF
the fatal accident Saturday. This wonderful region
is on the east side of Mt. Washington and Is plainly
seen from the mountains of Jackson and Conway,
and is stinguishable even from Portland. The wild
beauty of the ravine has been known to mountain
visitors for "6Ger ns Captan "a tsa Evans nn
generally known features of the ravne is the snow
arch. During each winter huge banks of snow are
packed against the ragged cliffs that form the wall OF
the rayne and these remain until the close OF summer.
The heat of ner causes numerous small sireamss
which trickle down the mountain side and work down
the face Of the under the snow emerging az tno
foot of the glacier. These gradually enlarge thsis M
upper portion of the immense snowdrift which, by
freezing again during the nights, Is gradually trans
formed into mass OF ice, honcycombed by numerous
channels or arches. After the LIST Of August II u
usually considered dangerous to venture into tho
arches masses of ice detached and fall at ire
quent intervals and by the third week in August the
arches generally disappear This year, however, the
fall was unusually early.
A party of the Appalachian Mountain Club visited
the ravne about the first of the present month Az
that time the glacier extended about two hundred feet
up the mountain side, and was three four hundred
feet wide. Several arches, leading in different direc~
tons to the top and sides found at the foot of the
glacier at that point easily could stand erect
but he advanced along tins bed of the brook he w
obliged to stoop. and to complete the passage to the
highest point necessary to crawl upon the hsnde
and knees. The passage was made by one OF the
party however and several ladies in the party went
through some of the shorter arches. 1t found BY
stgaon by the club that the of ice and snow
has regular glacial movement and another interest:
ing thing the discoveryJust under the edges OK
the glacier and in the mouths of the arches wherever
there was sufficient soil-of flowers that usually
bloom In the spring In this section of the country the
chill of the surrounding ice making them two months
late in blossomng. One Of the party also found near
the bride path from Crawfords in place exposed TO
the sum- patch of snow sixty feet in diameter. This
would indicate that the season not warm. and as
there has been but little hot weather since that time
the falling of the arch nearly month earlier
than usual is surprising.
