LITTLE MECATTINA AND MUTTON BAY 



to the "Staubbach" the wind was blowing so 

 strongly that I could scarcely stand against 

 it. The captain afterwards remarked, "Still 

 some wind left — we did not use it all." From 

 the pass a large patch of snow beyond looked 

 like a glacier creeping down the hillside. It 

 was marked by a deep crevasse, and from 

 under an arch at the lower end a brook issued. 

 All vegetation was as dead as winter about it. 

 We were catching up with the spring- as we 

 went east and north.
