series of yellow which in this case does not reflect upon the ventral
surface but upon the dorsal exposure. Finally the sun is up and all the
clouds to the east become an outline of dazzling white edges. The clouds
below strictly obey to the changing color scheme of the sunrise. It is
an exceptional site to approach one of the many protruding temples with
vividly outline edges around the faintly luminescent body and then in
passing catch all the delicate color of the completely luminated front.
Many of these delicate clouds remind me of a few of the yellow and pink
eolors found in Bryee Canyon in Utah.

As the morning advances we pass into the mountainous ranges but of
course with sonditions and proportions and complexities magnified and
enhanced a thousand times. Towering peaks like the Tanta and Matter-
horn are common sites with the valley of soft smooth alto-cumulus formations.
These snow fields complete the likeness of the dpine country. Even the
icy peaks now can cast their cold shadows across these fields of snow,
some of them extending across the valley to the base of the opposite
and paralleling range. The fineness of consistency of some of these alto
stratus veils is indicated when a moountain mass is engulfed but still
its finest of feature is discernible thru the veil. Other momtain
peaks are completely throuded in these smooth emveloping blankets of
strata producing the same features as a hill rounded by glacial action.
Occaisionally an area of dirty gray wool added variation to the pure
white snow surfaces. This new arctic would of course differ in many
respects to the arctic of our earthly plan, one of them being the long
tunnel like escapes to the ocean below. These corridors possess consider-
able depth which offered them the similarity of the fantastic and myster-
ous chasms leading to Hades, At the end of this cravasse was generally
found a large darkened chamber with illuminated shower banners stream-
ing down to meet the rarely exposed ocean surface. The entire experience
is as unreal and mystic that it is simply unbelievable, This country
differs from the earth in degree of complete involvment of confining

borders, and complexity of cloud arrangement.
