mit lake nestles like a sapphire at
Mile 19. Here is found the beginning
of Colorado creek, where other fine
mining properties are located.
Fresno creek is passed at Mile 19%
and at Mile 20, Joe Wilson’s big hy
draulic camp is reached. Following a
cursory inspection of the largest oper
ating placer camp in the district, tho
motors sped along to Pass creek, Mile
24„ over which spans a splendidly
constructed 90 foot trestle. Then on to
Frenchy creek, where a 70 foot Howe
truss bridge crosses. But at Donald
sen creek, Mile 27, the largest bridge
i
is encountered a 160 foot trestle, an
other example of good bridge building.
Anderson’s summer camp, at Mile
28, was the first real stopping place.
There several parties stopped for a
few hours to prepare meals. Others
stopped a mile further on at Ander
son’s winter camp.
Mile 29 is better known as the
Forks , for Canyon creek and East
Fork come in from Johnson Pass and
make Six-Mile river which flows on to
Sunrise, on Turnagain Arm, about six
miles away. Two miles more, to Mile
31, and the end of present construc
six miles between this point and Sun
tion was reached, the short span of
rise being yet to be completed.
Stops were made at all the outstand
ing beauty prominences and as the
day was ideal in every respect, the
vision was unobstructed tor miles.
The lakes, faithfully reflected in their
placid depths, the high heads of hoary
peaks shining still after all the suns
of summer. They reflected, also the
in the Territory, beckoned a score of
the caravan who climbed down Ifs
massive height to the beach, far be
low. Others improvised gold pans anfe
stampeded for the raging creeks. A
few got colors, but not many for one
must he skilled in the art of panning.
Anyway all had a great time saunter
ing along the highway, stopping where
they wished for an hour or for the
night. Camping outfits were carried hy
all. The sharp crack of gun fire occa
sionally broke thru the solitude with
booming echoes rumbling from out
deep valleys and from down towering
mountain sides. Fish lines were
dropped in all the waters of the Pass
country and good strings produced.
Frequently big game, bear and sheep
were seen. Sunday night the packs hf
bedding were unrolled at a late hour,
the excursionists sitting up till a late
hours recounting the day’s adventures
and of stories of bygone days. Long
before the sun was up yesterday morn
