As scenery will linger with us while we emerge from this canyon, we are at Glenwood Springs, a delightful health resort, at an elevation of 5,700 feet. But ere we reach this popular mountain resting -place, we have pass- ed the Mount of the Holy Cross, seen from the train. This mountain re- ceives its manse from two deep inden- tations or gulches near its top. These, filled with the perpetual snow of those heights,ive the appearance of a huge cross. Glenwood Springs has a series of hot springs, forming lakes of con- siderable size, affording bathing places for hundreds. Drinking these waters and bathing in then have been found efficacious hi many diseases. By pene- trating the caves, any degree of heat one may desire can be obtained in these sulphur baths. Trout fishing is excellent near Glenwood, and speckled beauties front two to five pounds re- ward the angler's patience. Now for a short distance, the Pass widens ; a table -land appears.
