Show BY PATH AND TRAIL. 159 and summit are covered with a forest of giant pine trees. At some time in the remote past, nature, when in an experimental mood, fashioned it, casting the huge freak to one side, and, laughing aloud, left it unfinished in the lonely desert. It is an unexampled unheaval, a marvelous oddity, from whose western rim one looks down 3,000 feet into the Tonto abyss, a weird depth, where ravines, arroyos, angular hills and volcanic set tlings conspire to produce one of the roughest and strangest spots on the earth's surface. |
