I'K;. I.— Lake of the Hanging Glaciers. _ This rcpiXiciU.-, a typical valley glacier that terminates in a lake where the ice front calves or hreaks off and tloats away in the form 

 of ice floes or miniature icebergs. The main glacier is fed by the snow and ice that fall from the small surrounding glaciers that cling to the slopes of the surrounding moun- 

 tains. This is a beautiful glacial view just at timber line in one of the wildest spots in the mountains west of Lake Windermere in the Columbia River Valley, British Columbia.
