Time required: 5 hours. The expedition can be extended to Sapphire Col immediately south of The Dome, and a return made by the Asulkan Glacier and Valley, providing an expedition of great variety and interest.
Lily Col—Name: By W. S. Green, with reference to Lily Glacier.
Altitude: 8,228 feet.
Location: The snow col between Lily and Swanzy Glaciers. Very fine views in both directions.
First Ascent: By W. 8. Green and the Rev. H. Swanzy in 1888.
Lookout, Mt.—Name: Origin not known. A good lookout-point over the Illecillewaet and Asulkan Glaciers and Vallevs.
Altitude: 8,219 feet.
Location: A peak of the Asulkan Ridge, opposite and directly above the commencement of the ice-fall of the Illecillewaet Glacier: adjoins Glacier Crest on the south.
Route: Reached from Glacier House by trail to Illecillewaet Glacier and an ascent of the same along its west margin; thence a short rock-climb to the summit. A guide is necessary.
View: This is an excellent view-point for the Sir Donalrl and Hermit Ranges, the basin of Rogers Pass, the Asulkan N'alley. Glacier, and Névé, and the Abbott Ridge.
Loop, The—Name: With reference to the great curves described by the railway along the lower slopes of Mt. Abbott on the south, and of Mt. Cheops on the north, in order to overcome the very steep descent from Rogers Pass to the bed of the Illecillewaet River. The Loop is a lasting tribute to the genius and skill of Major Rogers, the chief engineer of construction. The distance being too short and the grade too steep to contrive an adjustment of the railway in a direct route between the summit of the pass and the bed of the Illecillewaet, the track along the base of Mt. Abbott was extended on very high trestles, in a good pear-shaped curve, up the valley of Loop Brook crossing and recrossing the stream, doubling back on Mt. Abbott and passing 125 feet below its first traverse; thence it was made to describe another wide curve, for the third time crossing Loop Brook, now close to its junction with the Illecillewaet River. The original trestle-bridges are now filled in, and the creaking timbers are buried beneath a mass of rock and earth, making a safe, permanent way.
Loop Brook—Name: By W. S. Green, with reference to the great double loop described above.
Location: Drains the Lily, Bonney and Green Glaciers, and joins the Illecillewaet River at the Loop.
Laurie Station and Mining Camp—Name: By Canadian Pacific Railway Companv, origin unknown.
Altitude: 2,961 feet (rail level).
Location: An abandoned mining camp 2% miles east of Illecillewaet Station, 12¾ miles west of (Glacier Station. Immediately west of Laurie there is half a mile of tunnels and snow-sheds, and a watchman is stationed here to guard against accidents from the falling rocks and other possible casualties; otherwise there is no use for a station. The mining camp was prettily situated in a little grassy flat on the opposite side of the Illecillewaet River. It con-
