There was no path through the spruce groves and no foothold on the hillside rubble. Twice we worked our way up rough traverses that came to a dead end and compelled us to retrace our steps. Our shoulder packs trimmed down as they were to essentials, seemed to grow in weight with the growing hours. I even came to resent the tugging burden of Sock-Ey- e s old swinging from my belt holster. But I could see that my own burden, compared to Lan-de- r s, was trivial. For my trail mate carried a belt ax and rifle and grub bag and blankets. Sometimes he had to use the ax to cut a way through the undergrowth. We were two plodding animals, swallowed up by the wilderness, fighting our way through from one peril to another. And when we slept out that night, with a campfire between us and the aurora borealis e brushing the peaks of the mountains above us, I lay stunned with a slowly widening sense of solitude touched with unreality. It was the far-ohowl of a wolf that brought a final cry of protest ' from my lips. Im not much good to you, am I- Lander quietly announced. I detected a new timbre in his voice.
