in which manner the harmony with the stretch 2—7 becomes com- 
plete. FREUCHEN's map shows a water course, which from a lake 
near Navy Cliff runs towards northeast into the fjord. The panorama 
has a corresponding valley. FREUCHEN on his map has indicated a 
valley debouching on the north side of Vildtland, about 10 km west 
of Kap Schmelck; a corresponding suggestion is found in the panorama. 
The panorama shows a cape at Point 3. On FREUCHEN’s map 
there is no corresponding projection on the east side of Vildtland. 
I have already mentioned that a “cape” of this kind may owe its 
existence to the fact that the vault of the glacier, as far as HAGEN 
is concerned, conceals the bottom of a valley on the east side of 
Vildtland. (The depression is indicated on Fig.60 by means of a 
dotted line, according to PEary’s map sketch of 1892). On the other 
hand HaGen’s drawing of the upper contours of Academy Bre be- 
comes unintelligible when starting from the supposition that Point 3 
is to be the foot of a “cape” high up in the glacier. That this point 
is to be situated high up in the glacier not only appears from 
FREUCHEN’S map (the distance from the front of the glacier to Point c 
is here about 12 km) but also from PEArY’s coinciding descriptions 
from 1892 and 1895 in “Northward over the Great Ice”. If the ex- 
tent of the glacier is to be as indicated by PEARY and FEUCHEN, the 
upper contour of the panorama must be elongated to the right, very 
nearly as indicated by myself by means of a dotted line in the 
panorama. Hacen’s delineation of Glacier A would, on the other 
hand, fit in very well with the conditions at Kap Schmelck. It must, 
however, not be forgotten that the distance from the cairn to Point c 
is nearly 40 km. At that distance one will, even with the best 
conditions of light, always be exposed to misinterpretations of the 
landscape. As HAGEN was a mere amateur in respect of landscape 
drawing, there is nothing disquieting in the supposition that the 
definite lines in the panorama round Point 3 are not the expression 
of a corresponding definite conception of the terrain. 
As one of the unlimited number of possibilities I shall mention: 
If HAGEN has delineated his panorama in the evening and in sun- 
shine, the part of Academy Bre stretching as far as below the Peaks 4 
and 5 is made to lie in the shadow, whereas the remainder may 
have been sunlit like the surface of the fjord, as far as the latter 
was visible. In these circumstances the contour of Peak 4 indicated 
by HAGEN might correspond partly with the contour of the mountain 
and partly with that of the shadow of the mountains on the glacier. 
If Point 7 is to be identical with Navy Cliff, Point 10 must be 
Kap Schmelck. PEARY gives the altitude of Navy Cliff as 3800 feet, 
to which corresponds 1158 metres. The distance from Mylius-Erich-
