PLATE CXII. THE FERRAR GLACIER. 



FIG. 1 (Map B). From a photograph by R. W. SKELTON (Sk. 99, |-plate), Jan. 

 1903 ; showing the medial moraine of Ferrar Glacier, taken looking E.-N.-E. 

 from a point abreast of Cathedral Rocks. In the distance is seen the gap, 

 " New Harbour," by which the glacier enters M'Murdo Sound. Mount 

 Erebus should be visible a little to the right of the centre of the picture, 

 70 miles away. 



FIG. 2 (Map B). From photographs by R. W. SKELTON (Sk. 96 and 97, ^-plates), 

 Jan. 1903 ; looking down Ferrar Glacier towards E.-S.-E. from a point 

 midway between Solitary Rocks and Finger Mountain Ice- fall. Mount 

 Erebus was sometimes visible on the extreme left of the picture, directly over 

 the outlet of the Northern Arm. 



From left to right are, Northern Arm of glacier, the dark Solitary 

 Rocks, the snow-covered Royal Society Range with Mounts Hooker and 

 Lister, and Knob Head Mountain. 



FIG. 3 (Map B). From a photograph by R. W. SKELTON (Sk. 283, |-plate), Oct. 15, 

 1903 ; looking up Ferrar Glacier from the sea-ice of New Harbour. Knob 

 Head Mountain can be seen (at a distance of 35 miles), where the glacier is 

 turning a corner from the right, round the Kukri Hills. On the left, really 

 the southern side of the glacier, are the "Northern Foot-hills" and the 

 Cathedral Rocks.
