fred Mumm and Godfrey Howard,
English Alpinists, who have been IN
vestigating mountain regions In ehe
neighborhood of Mount ROBSON ana
the pass.
In exploration work spread over sew
eral weeks these mountain CLIMBERS
have discovered no trace OF the myth
cal mountains. The mountains were
reputed to be between 10000 and H.
600 feet in height. While these noun
tains do not appear to exist, Messrs.
Mumm and Howard. accompanied by
Morits Inderbinen. the former SWISS
guide. explored peaks each in the
neighborhood of 1900 feet high In
the vicinity OF Robson, and which to-
gether form one of the most magni-
ficent groups of mountain peaks which
these experienced mountain climbers
have ever seen.
Photographs have been taken by
Mr.. Mumm of an old blaze on the
bark of pine tree in the heart of the
Rockies which he thinks may possi-
bly, be a relic of an early pioneer trag-
edy During the dispute between trap
pers of the Northern Fur company and
the Hudson Bay company trappers
pushed their way through the noun
tains from British Columbia, follow
ing the route of Wood river, and even
tually arriving in an amphitheater OF
mountains known as the Commit
tees Punchbowl." The men had suf-
fered frightful hardships and consul
tation was held as to whether they
would return or go forward.
Seeing they had arrived at the wa
tershed, it was thought their journey
was only half over, and some decided
to go back The most of these perish
ed, while those who went forward soon
struck the easy path through Yellow
Tead and were out of the mountains
in week.
The blaze discovered by Messrs.
Mumm and Howard Is thought to have
been carved by four of the Inflated
party. Above the date. Octobar 20,
1853, are carved the following Initials:
