Text Appearing Before Image:
bout IS miles inwidth, and then passes in succession over tbe east branch of tbe Sierra de la Nariz, the SantaKosa Valley, in which is located a temporal of tbe same name, and the west branch of the Sierrade la Nariz. Tins range is a spur of the Sierra del Ajo on the north, and is a bare, rugged massof igneous rocks overlaid with a capping of broken black lava, which gives it a most dreary andsomber aspect. On the east branch of the range just north of the line is a most interesting andelaborate system of fortifications, formed of walls of lava about waist high and 2 or 3 feet inthickness, excellently located for defending the crest against assault. These fortifications weresaid to have been constructed by tbe Papagos for defense against Mexican troops when tbe regionbelonged to Mexico; but this is a mere tradition, which could not be verified. At the south end of tbe east branch of tbe Sierra de la Nariz is located the Nariz Temi)oral,a little south of tbe road from Altar to Sonoyta.
