Text description beneath the picture (subject to any spelling errors due to the OCR program used) BEN NEVIS. Ben Nevis, the monarch of the Scottish hills raises its head 4406 feet above the sea, and can therefore justly claim to be the highest point in the United Kingdom. We here see the summit as viewed from Banavie. Only in the hottest summer is the snowy covering thawed away from the summit, and even then stray drifts are usually to be found in the gullies and hollows. A meteorological observatory has now been maintained for some years at the top of Ben Nevis. The observations taken there are considered to be of much value, but the life of the observers is a hard one, for a home four thousand feet above the sea in latitude 56 64 N. in winter-time is a bleak and storm-swept residence for man.
