Some preliminary surveys were made of such a road some years ago, engineers declaring the plan to be entirely feasible. That the highway would attract thousands of tourists each year is the belief of thos interested in the movement, the view from Mount Ogden being declared one of the most glorious in the country. , Other members of the committee besides Chairman Hanke are O.

Above these Narrows, where tho walls of the canyon are limestone and shale, the river has excavated s wider valley for about a mile at the extremities of which are located two attractive summer camps, A little farther up the canyon is the Hermitage, a rustic hotel, built of logs and stone, the verandas of which form a vantage point for enjoying the rugged canyon scenery. At the Narrows one can see famous or Leaning Geologis Rock, a wonder to geological experts because of the rare, freaky formation. Four or five miles above the Hermitage, Ogden canyon broadens into a mountain valley about twelve miles long by eight miles wide, which was originally a bay communicating with Great Lake Bonneville, and while a bay, naturally became partially filled by material from the surrounding mountain.
