to cabin on the trail occupied by mr garrison of the frith and mr street of the florence the party took a trail leading up the mountain northward to the I 1 lorence owned by street and peebles the trail nag esteep and went straight up the mountain and many a slop was made in the the horses instinctively taking a rest whenever it suited them clinging to the saddle the party finally reached the summit and proceeded along the backbone of the mountain northward the view of the valley and the lake in this spot was and the whole party caged in amazement on the ic de below them A better lie w of alie lake and the islands could not be obtained unless it were at the identical spot where the united states survey was located list summer the city below the foot of the mona lains and stretching out in the to the norths eat presented a scene not equaled in many parts of hie world lien the mining ex perta who were used to mountain scenery grew poetical as they sat on their horses for the first time gariup on the grandeur of the scene that the mount nna east of ogden alone can produce but to continue conti noe the tale aej the ride to the next mine having followed very fair trail along the ridge through the oak brush the eldors choke cherries and birch the florence was reached the and no interest has taken in anything dinner was the uppermost thought the march was pressed and a hort t distance from the the nana waa rea lied here dinner was to be served and it as with much relief that he party unsaddled horses and sat down to await what waa coming mr grant of the nana was the cook and he was not long in seeing to the comfort of hia guests while they took a casual nunce at the mine he prepared dinner and such a dm it took but fifteen minutes by the watch to prepare it and ab bow the coffee perfumed the air it was a joeal of meals anere was bread corned beef the indispensable bacon tomatoes offee condensed milk any other injury that could be thought of how the boys ate it was a caution and bow the culinary skill of sir arant was praised and blessed the appetite of each was whetted and none was loath to show it it was a meal which it would pay a dyspeptic to work tor by climbing to the peak suffice it to say that the boys thought alie nana liine a great place now lor the mineral at the height of nearly the nana mine is located on the very edge of a precipice which damp that can never be filled comparatively akine around the edges of the mine are faund nearly forty tona of ore excellent ore which the mining men pronounced as tho best aliey had been during their trip of ores with which they were acquainted they were familiar with colorado ores and the formations here and in the centennial state were so different that they could not with any certainty define the quality of the ores this ore found near the dump which reached thousand of feet down abo mountain to the canyon toabe too not including the iron which it contained the tunnel went down on an incline about a hundred feet and the last assay had been made when at the depth of eighty feet the vein has now reached a point where it is thought that a shaft n ill soon have to be sunk iu order to follow it and at present is over three feet in width those who are working it know what they are about and will yet develop a rich mine having finished this mine a peep at the florence was taken it is situated on the line of the trail only about SOO feet from the nna it was first tunneled into the dirt and timbered to the distance of sixty fire feet when it became dangerous to continue it as the timbers bad to bold alt the bur face dirt the tunnel has therefore abandoned for the present and a ahalt has been sunk into the vein higher up this has now been bunk between twenty fit e to thirty feet and shou s similar ore to that of the nana mine achre ochre w now found there and it is thought a very valuable strike will yet be made on abia claim of the party conversant with mining and the appear ance of various orea and indications gay that the whole presents borne mot excellent formation and will yet develop paying strikes tain it is that there are large bodies of ere in the moun taina immediately east of ogden and that mining can be inada to pay alie prospector handsomely or his labor at the florence the party bade farewell to barnson and fa it being too late to visit the
