The narrative sequence of these two events is realised in the pair of images on each double page opening. Repetition of text and line of the route on the left hand page is juxtaposed with graphic representation of the sky on the date of the seven paces inquestion on the right hand page. The expository pair of images are in black/red/green on cream paper; the remainder are in white on black paper.
Cased in black cloth boards, blind impressed with key image of mountain journey on front and image from "eighty four paces" on back cover.
