most perpendicular in many places,
and in others retreating so abruptly
that the most cperieuced moun
taineers can scarcely tiscend or de
scend them. Prom twenty to fifty
feet above the bottom of this little
river the railroad was carved out of
the rock which seemed to do all in its
power to force this intruder into the
river below. 7$ow imagine yourself
going down this canyon which de
scends at a rate of 70 to 120 feet to
the mile, with hero a bridge, thero a
tunnel, here a sharp curve around a
rocky precipice where tho ono side of
the engine seems to bo sailing through
space, while the other is barely miss
ing the rocks which almost over
hangs it
"After ten miles of descent through
this serpentine chasm yon come to the
most gigantic landslide in railroad
history, embracing over 100 acres of
earth "which rushed from the top of
the left hand side of the canyon as yon
descend it to the valley below, carry
ing everything before it Originally
at this point the railroad passed down
tho river on tho left side cf the can
yon, but now you find it not only goes
down tue rignt; siue, out; on a grnue
some fifty feet higher than the buried
track on the left side.
"As vou look up the mountain you
will seo what appears like a great slice
carved out of its side, embracing rocks,
trees, clay, gravel and earth, which
descended nearly 1,000 feet down its
precipitous sides, filling the canyon
below for a depth of fully 150 feet and
completely damming np the river,
which at this time was swollen to a
wild, rushing, foaming mountain tor
rent from the melting snow and con
tinued rain. In its wild rush the
avalanche buried forever a whole sec
tion of track and obliterated an entire
tunnel.
"Soon after the avalauohe descended
the canyon above was formed into an
immense lake, miles in length and
varying from 20 to 150 feet deep, which
only lasted until the powerful torrents
could cut their way through the ob
structing rocks and clay, when they
went rushing down the canyon carry
ing everything before them. Just
think of a breast of water seventy-five
feet hierh descending a narrow canyon
like this, with a fall of at least 100 feet
to the mile, and hemmed in on all sides
by adamantine rocks, and you can
have a faint picture of this terrific war
of the forces of nature as the raging
waters tore their way through this
chasm to Cow creek valley several
miles below. Think of the hundreds
of feet of railroad track, ties, rails and
all, being carried across the canyon
and hurled from fifty to seventy-five
feet np the sides of the opposite moun
tain, while bridges, horses, wagons,
blacksmith shops, trestles and steel
rails, tho latter twisted and doubled up
like the letter S, were strewn along the
oanyon for miles, and are now seen
clinging high aud dry to the sides of
the palisades.
"In this war between nature and
art fully eighteen miles of railroad
wrm completely destroyed, three miles
of which hadfo bo changed to tho
other side of the canyon and a long
cut of fully fifty feet in depth made
through the debris of the intruding
avalanche, even after the grade had
been raised some fifty or seventy-five
feet above the level of the original
track. Tho avalanche destroyed three
large bridges, obliterated one tunnel,
