John Muir announces the discovery of rival
to the Yosemite Valley scenery. 1t is valley
10 the South. Fork OF Kings river, forty. five
miles from VisaIia 10 right line. This valley
is nine miles in length from east to west, and
has an average width at the bottom of about
half a mile. 1t lies 5000 feet above the level
of the sea, and its walls are about 5000 feet
high. They are precipitous, and some of the
striking features of the Yosemite, like Fl Capt.
tan, and the Sentinel and the Cathedral Rock ks.
have their counterparts. The falls of the new
valley have more water, but are less picturesque
than those OF the Yosemite.
