"to without low land snow fields or beauty" his young small size. The name is apparently a recent one as he dreamer reached so far south & should be connected with this country. The Prenta del Jura comes down on the Argentine side is another mountain of the same class. The Argentine side gets pass is even drier & people bleed than the rest of this is possible to without any forest or bushes whatever. The great peak of Aconcagua I could not see as it was cloudy in that direction but the snow peaks near by covered by more glaciers. Norther lower my then seen large snow fields or glaciers like the madras about Salsaman Cordillera Veronica & others peaks of Peru & Bolivia. The scenery considering this point of the lowest peak of the new world Aconcagua is very desolate & dreary & arid.
