P1eveni thousand feet above sea level.

aL depth of from ten to fifteen feet.
,Zkr shelters, huts and kitchens were
all buried in snow. The wind was so
flierce that most of our huts were al.
Enost blown to pieces, though they
.'were held together by wire.
This blizzard lasted for days, for
weeks, and it was impossible to keep
the huts clear. If you shifted one
sPadeful of snow, as likely as not the
wind would fling into its place two or
Lhree times the quantity. For whole
da-ys together we were dependent on
artificial light. No one so much as
thought of warm food during those

buried in snow, but we had no other
means of heating water. The hurrI.
