Text Appearing Before Image:
y direction ! To the extreme eastof the Point is a small, detached mass of boulder-strewn rocks, upon which the visitor should not failto clamber. Below is the river, east and west, with 138 IN AND AROUND its rapids, sandbars, and quiet stretches. Across,are the Algonkian Terraces, leading the eye tothe depths of Bright Angel Creek, whose pellucidwaters flow through as wild a chaos of metamorphicrocks as we find in Pluto Workshop, which is onthis side of the river, to our right. Look up thither-ward, passing on the way Pluto Pyramid and Al-gonkian Twist. Away up, just, below the IndianGarden, the tiny streak of the trail to the river canbe followed, winding under the upper Cambrianwall, on to the schists, past Hanging Lake, andzigzagging down and around Pluto Pyramid to themuddy waters at its base. It is an interesting view of a fascinating butrather arduous trip which every visitor should take,for, when the weariness is forgotten, a delightful andnever exhausted memory is the reward.
