and grandeur, as all can see by merely
looking across the Sound at the Olympic
mountains. though nothing is known
except of the outer edge of il. The de-
ve,Opmcnt of the Hoods Canal country
which is now rapidly going forward, will
probably involve the thorough explO"a-
ton of the country back of it. Doubt
less, the explorers now in the Olympic
country will bring back Information of
discoveries which will attract the atten-
ton of America and make this section
the mecca of seekers after the sublime
in nature. The best known beauties of
the Hoods Canal country is Lillewap
Falls, which is only half mile distant
from the canal. There is small settle
ment there but little accommodation for
visitors Seven miles west of the falls is
Lake Cushman lying right at the foot of
the mountains. There is no wagon road
to it, but there is a well-bcaten trail, and
settlement is rapidly extending in that
direction The lake abOunds in fish and
the surrounding country swarms with
deer, elk and bear. 1t will not be long
before q prosperous town grows up on the
shore of the lake -Obseryer.
