Starting down the ravine, for about a mile, they ascended a cleft-like formation of the hills, which terminated at the base of an overhanging precipitous ledge of rocks rising two hundred feet above them, with rents occasionally along the line, extending from the top to the bottom in yawning chasms, in one of which they hoped to shield themselves from further pursuit.

Beyond the valley there were more mountains, and half-way through this second range the trail plunged into a deep, cleft-like canyon with a brawling torrent for its pathfinder.

This is undoubtedly true in many instances, for almost every lunar region affords examples of crater- rows merging by almost imperceptible gradations into cleft-like features, and crater-rows of considerable size resemble clefts under low powers.
