Songs of the Rockies (Classic Reprint) by Charles Edwin Hewes Pdf
Excerpt from Songs of the Rockies Seen from Estes Park and the Great Plains on the east, and from the oors and west rims of Middle and North Parks, the great mountain appears as a huge central mass supported by vast ranges on the north and south. In reality, the peak is on a short spur range a mile east of the Continental Divide, but this separat ing distance is so slight as to be imperceptible when the range is viewed en masse. Two of the four large interstate rivers rising in Colorado, the Platte and the Colorado, find their sources in this region; the former, not only receives an immense ood from the tributary Boulder, St. Vrain, Thompson and Poudre streams, but is also greatly augmented by the splendid ow of the North Platte, streaming northward into Wyoming.
