Text Appearing Before Image:
prise both deer and elk, confident of safety from the approachof man. Numerous flowering parks display seas of gorgeouscolors which make the region famous for its beauty. It also serves as a huge treasure chest. Billions of feet ofchoicest timber remain uncut; valuable ore veins and a vast lakeof petroleum are buried within its depths; land well suited foragriculture girdles the entire peninsula; and the neighboringwaters yield liberal quantities of fish. Certain beauty spots in the mountains have been supple-mented with the conveniences and luxuries of modern invention.Among these are Sol Due Springs, at the headwaters of the SolDue river, where a little palace has been lifted into the moun-tains, Government Hot Springs, and Lake Crescent, all reachedfrom Port Angeles; Lake Cushman, approached from Hoods-port; and Lake Quiniault, north of Grays Harbor. A visit toany of these resorts or any part of the peninsula will satisfythe most extravagant expectations of tourist and mountaineer.
