Text Appearing Before Image:
oleon andhis men climbing up the Alps, are but childish play-things in comparison with the grandeur ot ChilkootPass. Starting up the steep ascent, we raised ashout and it ran the long, steep and tortuous line that stood against the summit or rather between the biggranite blocks that marked the summit. As I saidbefore, the path is not so formidable as it looked, andit is not half so formidable as represented, but mark you,it is no boys play, no mans play. It is a mans anda big strong mans honest work, and takes strength ofbody and nerve of soul. Right in the path and within ten feet of a snowbank that has not perished for a thousand years, Ipicked and ate a little strawberry, and as I rested androamed about a bit, looking down into the brightlyblue lake that made the head waters of the Yukon, reached from a bluflF above us, and over and up till I irnthered a little sun flower, a wild hyacinth and ait lost itself in the clouds. And down to us from the wild tea blossom for my buttonhole.
