Helping the Indian [Walker Lake Reservation, Nevada] (5 pages)

SUNSET, the Pacific Monthly 81 Six miles northwest of Colorado Springs is a charming little valley called Blair Athol, of which Helen Hunt Jackson, the author of Ramona, says: “I do not believe that in all the earth is a spot to be found more beautiful than Blair Athol, unless it may be some wild flower garden nestled at the base of the Dolomites in the Tyrol.” At the foot of Pike’s Peak is Manitou, the famous resort and mineral springs. Over the } rocky defiles of the Ute Pass the Indians for centuries carried their sick and dying to these springs, which they called the “Great Spirit.” Cheyenne Canyon is another restful glade that runs into the mountains for about a mile, endingabruptly in a series of beautiful waterfalls and cascades. It is very much worth the motorists’ while to make the trip south to Pueblo, the second largest city in Colorado. . Here a very interesting journey can be made up the Arkansas river to Canyon City, where one can motor over the famous Royal Gorge Loop and the re~ markable Sky Line Drive. _ Another very picturesque section of Colorado that is accessible to the motorist _is the Mesa Verde National Park, almost in the southwestern corner of the state. _ Here are perhaps the best preserved relics of the Cliff Dwellers on the North American continent. This national park is _ reached by a good automobile road from ‘Mancos, Colorado. » The Mesa Verde is a great plateau that has been cut into deep and precipitous gorges by the Mancos river and its many tributaries. In these cliffs and on the mesa tops are many mysterious ' structures reared by the race that once flourished here. It has been long known that the dwellings were here, but it is pay recently that they have been put under the protection of the government to preserve them from commercial collectors and the omnipresent souvenir -gatherer. On the top of one of the larger mesas a peculiar mound had long been an object of curiosity. After months of excavation here, the famous Sun Temple of Mesa Verde was revealed after its ages of burial. It is a great building shaped like a capital D, almost 425 feet long. The outlines of its walls show man round and semicircular rooms, which must have been used as places of worship. Such a building could only have been erected from a preconceived plan, worked . out in its entirety before construction Was started. Planned as it is, it is imssible that it could have been built by room being added to room in a hit-ormiss fashion by succeeding generations. . In the high ‘cliffs themselves some of the dwelling places, several of them three Stories high and large enough to house many families, have been restored to Somewhat their original condition. To anyone who feels the mystery and Tomance of this departed civilization the Mesa Verde National Park proves fas<imating. ; ‘ : . Not everything that is worth seeing in Polorado is two miles high, but in looking ) at the high places, and looking JA the high places there is an hanging panorama of delight.
