As in the last trip of the or- ganization, in the summer of 1919, the Mountaineers wll fol- low both the “high nne”’ and “low line” routes between some of the park camps. A commis. sary and dunnage pack train will keep to the Jower trails and will accompany the party which will be made up of Mountaineer mem- bers and those of other scientif- fe and climbing bodies vouched for. The 1924 outing will differ from former ones, in that the party of explorers will attempt to make the main climb from Van Trump camp up the Kautz glacier and Wapowety Cleaver, over a new route recently discovered by Joseph T. Hazard. This climb will be made at the end of the first week. TO TRAVEL ID EUROPE BY MOTORCYCLE Cc. A, Sexauer and Paul Monroe, two business men of.
