Copyright by E. H. Shackleton. 1909. THE CLOUD MAKER. There is here shown for the first time one of the mountains discovered on the Furthest South journey. This particular peak was christened "The Cloudmaker, because cumulus clouds generally hung over it. The bare rock on the slopes to the left is mainly reef quartz. The camp in the foreground is 3000ft up the glacier. In front is a maze of hidden crevasses. Another glacier runs down to the right. The theodolite tripod is conspicuous in the camp scene.
