At least it didn't look like more than a mile but it took nearly two hours to get through that jungle of elder and reach the bare rocks from which the glacier last retreated.

Anyone who has looked to the north ward from the top of Mount Roberts or from the ridge that rises eastward from Mount Juneau has probably seen a single domed shaped peak rising above all is fellows within twenty miles of it. It is noticeable at long distance because of it's isolated height and it's helmet shaped head.
 On one chart I have seen that it seems to be named the Lions Head. This peak stands at the head of Lem on creek glacier and it's grandeur in creases the nearer one approaches it.. From Mount Olds and Salmon Head it looms up over the snow fields at a distance of four or five miles, it's clear cut outline, black above the snow like colonial soldiers hat.

 From one point we gained our first view of our destination far away a. cross the snow fields. At our right in a rocky valley we discovered beau tiful green lake several acres in ex- tent tempting us to a swim in it's clear waters but too much mountain inter vened between us and that distant head A second lake was seen across the glacier.

 After lunch we climbed nearly seven hundred feet up an icy but snow cov- cred slope so nearly perpendicular that it gave us a glorious slide when we rel turned in the late afternoon. This brought us to the edge of the main snow field extending unbroken for 5 miles to the foot of that towering mass of rock now in sight.
