On the 13th we renewed our journey and parted from Mr.Clark to whom we were much obliged for his hospitality and kindness.

We soon reached the Methye Portage and had a very pleasant ride across it in our carioles.
The track was good and led through groups of pines, so happily placed that it would not have required a great stretch of imagination to fancy ourselves in a well-arranged park.

We had now to cross a small lake and then gradually ascended hills beyond it until we arrived at the summit of a lofty chain of mountains commanding the most picturesque and romantic prospect we had yet seen in this country.

Two ranges of high hills run parallel to each other for several miles until the faint blue haze hides their particular characters, when they slightly change their course and are lost to the view.
