The
whole
aspect
of
the
region
had
now
completely
changed
.
Huge
blocks
of
glittering
ice
,
of
a
bluish
tint
on
some
of
the
declivities
,
stood
up
on
all
sides
,
reflecting
the
early
light
of
morn
.
The
ascent
became
very
perilous
.
They
were
obliged
to
reconnoiter
carefully
before
making
a
single
step
,
on
account
of
the
crevasses
.
Wilson
took
the
lead
,
and
tried
the
ground
with
his
feet
.
702
His
companions
followed
exactly
in
his
footprints
,
lowering
their
voices
to
a
whisper
,
as
the
least
sound
would
disturb
the
currents
of
air
,
and
might
cause
the
fall
of
the
masses
of
snow
suspended
in
the
air
seven
or
eight
hundred
feet
above
their
heads
.
703
They
had
come
now
to
the
region
of
shrubs
and
bushes
,
which
,
higher
still
,
gave
place
to
grasses
and
cacti
.
At
11,000
feet
all
trace
of
vegetation
had
disappeared
.
They
had
only
stopped
once
,
to
rest
and
snatch
a
hurried
meal
to

recruit
their
strength
.
With
superhuman
courage
,
the
ascent
was
then
resumed
amid
increasing
dangers
and
difficulties
.
They
were
forced
to
bestride
sharp
peaks
and
leap
over
chasms
so
deep
that
they
did
not
dare
to
look
down
them
.
In
many
places
wooden
crosses
marked
the
scene
of
some
great
catastrophes
.
705
About
two
o'clock
they
came
to
an
immense
barren
plain
,
without
a
sign
of
vegetation
.
The
air
was
dry
and
the
sky
unclouded
blue
.
At
this
elevation
rain
is
unknown
,
and
vapors
only
condense
into
snow
or
hail
.
Here
and
there
peaks
of
porphyry
or
basalt
pierced
through
the
white
winding-sheet
like
the
bones
of
a
skeleton
;
and
at
intervals
fragments
of
quartz
or
gneiss
,
loosened
by
the
action
of
the
air
,
fell
down
with
a
faint
,
dull
sound
,
which
in
a
denser
atmosphere
would
have
been
almost
imperceptible
.
706
However
,
in
spite
of
their
courage
,
the
strength
of
the
little
band
was
giving
way
.
Glenarvan
regretted
they
had
gone
so
far
into
the
interior
of
the
mountain
when
he
saw
how
exhausted
his
men
had
become
.
Young
Robert
held
out
manfully
,
but
he
could
not
go
much
farther
.
707
At
three
o'clock
Glenarvan
stopped
and
said
:

"
We
must
rest
.
"
709
He
knew
if
he
did
not
himself
propose
it
,
no
one
else
would
.

"
Rest
?
"
rejoined
Paganel
;
"
we
have
no
place
of
shelter
.
