Elias, the Seward glacier will furnish the most promising highway of travel. The GLACIERS OF NORTH AMERICA. PLATE 16. FIG. A. SURFACE OF SEWARD GLACIER, ALASKA. The summit of Mount St. Elias is seen in the distance, beyond the hills bordering the glacier. (Drawn from a Photograph. ) FIG. B. DAVIDSON GLACIER, LYNN CANAL, ALASKA. GLACIERS OF ALASKA. 101 snow fields along the margins of the glacier where its surface is most broken afford easy lines of march, and the ice falls can be passed without... serious difficulty by scaling the adjacent cliffs. When once above the upper fall the way is clear, and a broad, snow-covered surface affords a direct route to the immediate base of Mount Logan. In making this journey the explorer should pass around the southern end of the Hitch- cock range and gain the Seward glacier just above the lower fall. When that point is reached the way ahead is well defined. By means of snow shoes and sleds drawn by dogs, an advance can be made for perhaps a hun- dred miles into the interior.
