The various topograph- ical and other data collected on this occasion, have been duly applied for the construction of the annexed Map. On the west side of Mount Beerenberg. approximating the sea, lay few patches of snow; but no glacier extended vets Bred. Da vi vare konme paa Hpjden af Yestre Kors- Bugt, saa vi en stor Isbrae (Weyprechts Brae), der skjpd sig frem i Havet med en brat Ydervaeg, og kort Tid efter viste sig en lignende, endnu stprre Isbrae (Kjerulfs Brae). Den sidstes yderste bratte Vaeg var efter de anstillede Yinkelmaalinger 45 Meter hpj. Braeerne kom frem under Taagen med en Overflade, der skraanede meget svagere end de stejle Braeer paa Ostsiden. Jeg anslog Heldingen til c. 10°. Endnu en 3die Isbrae (Foyns Brae) saaes psten- for den store. Den var mindre end de to andre. Da vi en af de folgende Dage.atter passerede Nordsiden af Jan Mayen, laa Taagen hpjere, saa at vi bedre kunde se, hvor- ledes Nordsidens Braeer komme frem af dybe Indskjaeringer i den 300™ hpje, bratte Fjeldvaeg, der her, ligesom paa Ostsiden, dauner Beerenbergs Fod ud mod Havet. Billedet Fig. 5 viser de 3 Braeer paa Nordsiden, saaledes som vi saa dem.

Off West Cross Bay, we saw a large glacier'(Weyprechts glacier), jutting into the sea, with a steep outer wall; and shortly after another came in sight (Kjerulfs glacier), of still more imposing dimensions, its precipitous outer . wall being found by trigonometrical measurement to attain an elevation of 150 feet. The gla- ciers here, as seen beneath the mist, had the slope of their surface much more gradual than the precipitous glaciers on the east side. I estimated the incline at about 10 degrees. A third glacier (Foyn’s glacier) was sighted east of the large one. It was smaller than the other two. On one of the following days, • as we again coursed along the northern shore of Jan Mayen, the clouds lay higher, affording a bet- ter view of the coast; and on this occasion the glaciers could be distinctly seen, projecting’ from deep clefts in the abrupt mountain-wall, which attains an altitude of 900 feet, and here, as on the • east side, forms the seaward base of Mount Beerenberg.
