CHAP. ix.] BETWEEN TWO GLACIERS. 243
of a mountain whose summit was supposed to
be the abode of a guardian deity, they, although
Mohammedans, sacrificed a bullock to this
deity, and prayed and salaamed to it. As they
subsequently ate the bullock, and as I paid for
it, this little ceremony was doubtless very
helpful to them. At any rate, they were much
more cheerful after it, and as I now had some
new foot-gear, we were able to push along
rapidly up the Punmah glacier. But on the
third day from Askoli, opposite a camping-
ground called Skinmang, we were brought to a.
standstill. At this point the glacier flowing
down from the New Mustagh Pass joins the
Punmah glacier, and we were completely
" cornered " between the two glaciers. To
reach the pass we should have had to cross the
glacier flowing down from it ; but this we found
it impossible to do, for just at this point there
had evidently been an immense ice-slip on to
the glacier, and gigantic blocks of ice were
tumbled about one on the top of the other in a
way which made it perfectly impossible to get
any footing at all on the glacier. So we turned
round and faced for Askoli once more.
