CHAP. Ix.] A RISKY PROCEEDING. 219
this seemed to me an utter impossibility. The
guides thought so too, and I decided upon
sending the ponies round by the Karakoram
Pass, 18o miles to the eastward, to Leh, and
going on myself over the Mustagh Pass with a
couple of men. This would have been a risky
proceeding, for if we did not find our way over
the pass we should have scarcely enough pro-
visions with us to last us till we could return to
an inhabited place again. Supplies altogether
were running short, and the longer we took in
reaching the pass, the harder we should fare if
we did not succeed in getting over. But while
I was deciding upon sending the ponies back,
the caravan men were making a gallant attempt
to lead them up the glacier. I rejoined them,
and we all helped the ponies along as well as
we could ; hauling at them in front, pushing at
them behind, and sometimes unloading and our-
selves carrying the loads up the stone-covered
mounds of ice. But it was terribly hard and
trying work for the animals. They could get
no proper foothold, and as they kept climbing
up the sides of a mound they would scratch
away the thin layer of stones on the surface,
and then, coming on to the pure ice immediately
