But we sought the nearest inn, and shutting out the sunlight to the best of our ability with the curtains, re- tired and slept soundly till ten o'clock ; then having partaken of a good breakfast we started on a six mile walk up the grand Naerodal, a valley bounded by mountains. A smooth, well- made road passes through the valley ; on either side the roar of waterfalls greeted us as they fell hundreds of feet and dashed their spray against the rocks, and as we advanced the Jor- dalsnut, nearly f...our thousand feet high, an im- mense cone of light-gray feldspar, its sides and summit as smooth as if trimmed off with a knife, projected into the valley.

At the base of the abrupt precipices forming the sides of the Naerodal, are great masses of rock brought down by avalanches and land- slides.
