scenery, took supper at northbend.
Oct 27th This morning we found ourselves whirling
through the forests of Pine, Spruce, Fir & Cedar along the
shores of Shuswap Lake, and the Fraser, Thompson and
Eagle Rivers in turn. nooned at Glacier House in full
view of the "Great Glacier of the Selkirk." It was a day
of surprise and wonder. We crossed the Columbia
River twice, we saw forests of cedars from 1 to 3 feet
through and from 75 to 100 feet high. we passed
through the Gold, Selkirk & Rocky mountains, crossed
Rogers Pass, 4275 feet above the Sea, and the mountain
peaks loom up above the pass from 7000 to 10,000 feet.
