Far away—perhaps thirty miles tothe north-west—a magnificent snow-coveredmountain was to be seen, its western face beinga precipice; from the way it towered above itsneighbours it seemed to be excessively high.Although the great peak, Mount Forbes, fromthis point also overtopped all the surroundingpeaks by many hundreds of feet, yet this othergiant far away to the north-west was of muchgreater interest, for there were only two peaksof that size, and so far north, marked on themaps. These were Brown and Hooker, reputedto be 16,000 and 15,700 feet high. When Sarbach woke up from his sleep hewas scandalised to find that no attempt was tobe made on the peak, but it was now too lateto think of climbing farther; so, having packedall our baggage, we proceeded down the moun-tain, finding an easier descent through the rock-wall on to the ice-field below. On the lowerpart of the Freshfield glacier were a series oflarge blocks of stone, some even as much as 54</i><br><b>Text Appearing After Image:</b><br><i>The Freshfield Glacier (Looking South) THE FRESHFIELD GLACIER fifteen to twenty feet cubed. It is a curiousfact that in 1860 Hector, who probably was theonly other white man that had ever visited thisglacier, noticed the same thing. He says, Weascended over the moraines, and had a slipperyclimb for a long way to reach the surface of theice, and then found that it was a more narrowbut longer glacier than the one I visited theprevious summer (1858).^ The upper part ofthe valley which it occupies expands consider-ably, and is bounded to the west by a row ofhigh conical peaks that are completely snow-clad. We walked over the surface of the icefor four miles, and did not meet with manygreat fissures. Its surface was remarkably pureand clear from detritus, but a row of largeangular blocks followed nearly down its centre.Its length I estimated at seven miles, and itswidth at one and a half to two miles. The in-teresting question arises. Can these be the sameblocks ? Hector may have seen them</i><br><br><b>Note About Images</b><br></p>
