When they reached the foot of the hill they caught a glimpse of what might be rocks on each side.squarish rocks， if you looked at them carefully， but no one did. All were more concerned with the ledge right in front of them which barred their way. It was about four feet high. The Marsh.wiggle， with his long legs， had no difficulty in jumping onto the top of it， and he then helped the others up. It was a nasty wet business for them， though not forim， because the snow now lay quite deep on the ledge. hey then had a stiff climb.Jill fell once.up very rough round for about a hundred yards， and came to a second dge. There were four of these ledges altogether， at quite regular intervals.
