" February 2. It had ceased snowing, and this morning the lower air was clear and frosty ; and six or seven thousand feet above, the peaks of the Sierra now and then appeared among the 13 / 146 LTFB 01' FKEMONT. rolling clouds, which were rapid...ly dispersing be- fore the sun. Our Indian shook his head as he pointed to the icy pinnacles shooting high up into the sky, and seeming almost immediately above us.
