First we encountered a layer of light-coloured limestone very much shattered; thencame a bed of much firmer dark brown rock,then more pale loose limestone, and near thetop almost black limestone with light veins.Towards the summit the ine\dtable cornice wasencountered, and, traversing some distance be-low it, we climbed a narrow ridge of rocks over-hung with snow and found ourselves on thehighest point at 3 p.:m. Our height appeared tobe 10,500 feet. The view was an entirely new one to all of us,except Weed and Hans, the foreground beingfilled in with a set of mountains whose headswere only dimly discernible from the peaksabout the head-waters of the Saskatchewan.Northwards the terraced cliffs of Hungabeechiefly attracted our gaze, with the massiveforms of Victoria and Lefroy immediately to the right: across Prospectors Valley rose 316</i><br><b>Text Appearing After Image:</b><br><i>ASCENT OF NEPTUAK Mount Vaux and the three pinnacles of Good-sir, the most imposing, and perhaps the loftiest,peak in this region of the Rockies, with SirDonald and the Selkirks beyond, and a sea ofmountains rolling, wave upon wave, further tothe west. Quite close to us southwards, acrossa dip in the ridge, the grim precipices of thetriangular Deltaform towered, tier upon tier,some hundreds of feet above our heads; andfrom this point of view they did not look atall inviting. After half-an-hour spent in takingour bearings and photographing we began thedescent, and it was late in the afternoon beforewe got off the rocks. We had a coupleof merry glissades down the snow, and thentramped homewards, reaching the tents soonafter sundown. Neptuak proved our last climb. All Wed-nesday and Thursday it blew and sleeted andsnowed, and the hillsides once more donnedtheir winter mantles; so, having only two moredays to spend in the mountains, on the Fridaywe struck camp and returned to Laggan.
