The daily mountaineer. (Dalles, Or.) 1861-1866, 1865-12-15

The BLUE MOUNTAIN BARRIER.-One of the
curiosities of the Columbia Basin, is the
Blue Mountain barrier, with its continuation
to the eastward, the Lapwai Mountains.
Running partly along the 45th parallel, this
great retaining wall of the Snake River de-
preston, trends slightly to the north as it
connects with the western spurs of the Bit
ter Root Range. At one time, the waters of
Snake River Basin, which drain considera
bly, over e-third of the area Of the Colum:
bia Basin, were confined by this great noun
tain wall to the depth of over half mile.
Ascending the highest peaks of the great
Wallowa Stack Of mountains, there are
points where the action of the water, in
rending the great barrier, are plainly visible.
spectacle of unusual grandeur is witnessed
from the great peak to the east of the head
of Eagle Creek Here, at the height of near
III, 900 feet-amid ravines and chasms, where
the snow lies perpetualy-the sight reaches
off to the east where the bends in Snake
River Canon reveal, terrace upon terrace, the
marks of the successive steps in the drain
age of the county, where the mines of Owy-
hee and Boise are located. No basis of CAL
culation can even approximately determine
the lapse of ages since the waters of a lake
covering over 10000 square miles, first
spilled their waters down the northern slope
of the Blue Mountains but it is an easy ex-
ercise of the imagination to form in the
mind the picture of the slow, simple and
mighty process of nature by which its bed
was turned into country fitted for the bab-
itation of man. 1t is possible to determine
the relative height of the pass at the Gas
cades and that in the Blue Mountain barrier
at the time when the waters first began to
run out at the lower gorge. 1t is probable
that the one at the Cascades was considera
bly, higher than the other. The water marks
are still SO distinctly visible that an exam
ination, with proper scientific appliances
would establish an interesting fact in tn,
history of the geological formation of thi
country.
