Text Appearing Before Image:
he country is one of much beauty and interest. Thehighest spot on the mesa is Park Point, 8,515 feet in altitude. The mesasnorthern edge is a fine bluff two thousand feet above the Montezuma Valley,whose irrigation lakes and brilliantly green fields are set off nobly against thedistant Rico Mountains. To the west are the La Salle and Blue Mountainsin Utah, with Ute Mountain in the immediate foreground. The views are inspiring, the entire country different. In the spring the en-tire region blooms. It used to be a country of wild animals and at times deer arestill plentiful. There is a fairly comfortable camp near Spruce Tree House. An unusual attraction of the summer of 1915 was the unearthing of thegreat mound which covered Sun Temple. Dr. Fewkes maintained a camp nearthe mound and lectured almost nightly to those who gathered around his campfire. The same informal custom will probably be resumed during succeedingsummers while the exploration of other suggestive mounds is progressing.
