Undoubtedly, there Is a story back of each name. But the mountaineer Is often poetic, too, and gracefully descriptive In his place names. The touch of melancholy In his nature Is evidenced by the frequent recurrence of such names as Lonesome and Troublesome. Desolation, Defeated Poor Fork, Kingdom Come, Falling Water and Lost creek are significant names of streams. Craggy Dome, Balsom Cone, the Black Brothers, Little Lone Bald Thunderhead, Snowbird, Grandfather; Hawksblll; Graybeard and Wine Spring Bald are all mountains lyrically and descriptively named.
