how he climbed To the top of a mount
ain l8, $40 feet high, which he calls Clous
Peak. On reaching the very highest
pinnacle he saw great glacier stretched
out before him. The mass of Ice was
not less than five miles long, and at the
bottom extended out into lake about
three-tourths OF a mile. The lake is q
small but very picturesque sheet Of wa
ter. In il the explorer saw ieebergs
which had broken of the glacier. The
glacier in every way resembled those o.
the Alps, and was moving constantly
but by inhnitesimal degrees. The great
quantity OF ice in the lake, too. seemed
TO lower the temperature considerably
and at the time johnson was there
three weeks aga portion OF the BODY
of water was covered with Ice three OF
four inches thick. Another mountain
doomed up less than two miles from
Cloud Peak, and from distance il looked
as il il would be impossible for any mar
TO climb il without cutting stairway IN
the rock. There were precipices thou
sands OF feet high, and even on the gla-
cier there was one place where man
could stand and drop stones down into
the water, distance OF 1000 feet.
