Indeed, we shed as one does after a' cold The pack had been much disturbed and considerable time and distance was lost in seeking a workable line of trav- el. Camping at midnight, we had only made nine miles for a day's effort. Awakening in time for observations on the morning of the 30th, the weath- er was found beautifully 'cl The fog, which had persistently screened the’ west, had vanished, and land was discovered at some distance west, e: tending parallel to the line of march. The observations placed us at latitude 84 deg. 50 min. longitude 95 deg. 3 min In the occasional clearing spells for several days we had seen sharply de- fined land clouds drifting over a low band of pearly fog, and we had ex- HUNT .., ..

T land as we saw it gave the impression of being two islands, but our observa- tions were Insufficlent to warrant such an assertion. They may be islands they may be part of a larger land ending far to the west. What was seen of the st_southerly coast extends 20 min, to 83 deg. 31 min,, m from 83 de close to the 102d meridian. This land has an irregular moun- tainous sky line, is perhaps e hundred feet high, and resembles its upper reaches the high lands of Heiberg Isiand. The lower shore line was at no time visible. From 84 deg. 23 mir 85 deg. 11 min., close t: extending to the 102d me- ridian, the ejast is quite straigut. Its upper surface is flat and mostly ice capped, rising in steep cliffs to about twelve hundred feet. The lower sur- face was so distinctly seen that we were unable to detect glacial streams or ice walls. Both lands were hope- lessly buried under accumulated snows. We were eager to set foot on the nswly discovered coast, for we believ- ed then, as proved by later experience, that these were the earth’s northern- most rocks, but the pressing need for rapid alvances In the aim of our mis- sion did not permit of detours. Resolu- tions were reinforced and energy was harbored to press onward for the pole in an air line, Fair Marches Made. Early observations, however, indicat - ed an terly drift, and a westerly course must be continuously fo to nterbalance the movement. A cur- tain was drawn over the land in t aftsrnoon of March 31st, and we saw no more of it. Day after day we now pushod alosg In desperate north- ward efforts. Strong winds and frac- tured, irregular ice increased the diffi- culties; progress was slow. In one way or other we managed to gaia a fair marcl: between storms du ing each twenty-four hours. In an oc- © onal spell of stillness mirages spread rcreens of fantasy out for our entertainment. Curious cliffs, odd shaped mountains and inverted ic walls were displayed in attractive col- ors. Discoveries were made often, but with clearer horizon the deception was detected On April 3 the barometer remained steady and the thermometer sank. The weather became settled and clear. The pack became a more permanent glitter of color and jay. At noon there was now a dazzling light, while the sun at midnight sank for but a few moments under a persistent mnortherly haze, leaving the frosted blues bathed in noonday splendor. In these days we made long marches. The Ice steadlly improved. Fields be- came larger and thicker, the pressure lines less frequent and less trouble- some. Nothing changed materially; the horison moved, our footing was seemingly a solid crust of ice, but it shifted eastward; all was in motion. Often we were too tired to build snow houses, and ‘n sheer exhaustion we bivouacked in the lee of huminocks, Here the overworked bodies called for sieep, but the mind refused to close the aye.

Measuring the lce. In these troubled areas we were en frequent opportunties to measure thickness, aud from our observations we have >>me to the conclusion th the ice during one year does not freeze to a depth of more than about ten feet But much of the ice of the centrai pack reaches a depth of from twenty to twenty-five feet, and occasionally we crossed fields fifly feet thick, These invariably showed the =igng of many years of surface upbuilding. It is very difficult to surmise the amount of submerged freezing after the first year, nut the very uniform thickness of the Antarctic sea ice leads to thesuggestion that a limit is reached in the second year, when the ice, with its cover of snow, is 5o thick that very little is added afterward from below. Increase in size after that is prob- ably in the main the result of addi- tion to the superstructure. Frequent falls of snow, combined with the alter- nate melting and freezing of summer, and a process similar to the upbuilding of glacial ice, are mainly undulating which give character to the mid- ice and escape alopg the east avest costs of Greenland, are therefore mostly augmented from the surface.
