The highest peaks of the Cordillera appear to consist of active or more commonly dormant volcanoes, such as Tupungato, Maypu, and Aconcagua, which latter stands 23,000 feet above the level of the sea, and many others. The next highest peaks are formed of the gypseous and porphyritic strata, thrown into vertical or highly inclined positions.
We had a fine view of a mass of mountains called Tupungato, the whole clothed with unbroken snow, in the midst of which there was a blue patch, no doubt a glacier; a circumstance of rare occurrence in these mountains. Now commenced a heavy and long climb, similar to that of the Peuquenes.
