“The scenery of Mount Tacoma is of rare and varied beauty. * * We have 
seen nothing more beautiful in Switzerland or. Tyrol, in Norway or in the Py- 
renees than the Carbon River glacier and the great Puyallup glaciers* * The 
combination of ice scenery with woodland scenery of the grandest type is to 
be found nowhere in the old world, unless it be in the Himalayas, and, so far 
as we know, nowhere else on the American ¢ontinent.”—Extracts from joint 
letter written by Hon. James Bryce, member of the English Alpine Club, and 
Prof. Carl Zittel, of Munich, a noted Eurepean geologist.
