guided by huge crosses which stand
against the trees along the trail. We
are surprised to see several huts up
here, and from their structure we
Judge it has been many years since
they were built-in the time when
wild animals were numerous upon
the mountains.
An immense cross stands upon the
edge of the precipice, and here we
stand in silent admiration. The
view is sublimely grand. Our vision
is unobstructed and it is with un-
bounded Joy that we survey "crea-
ton round" Thousands of feet be-
low us, nestled among the hills, lie
little villages surrounded by fertile
fields. Mountains rise in the dis
lance, phantom like, lovely and
grand in appearance, and the lights
and shadows are beyond description.
A very magnificent panorama lies
before us, and In wonder we gaze,
loath to leave, spell bound by the
grandeur and sublimity of it all.
The descent is much more trying,
owing to the steepness of the trail,
but one forgets that in the enjoy
ment of the fact that he has been on
the top of Badly. In short a trip to
Old Badly and a climb TO the sum
init in all its phases is the wonder OF
the one who sees and the despair of
him who wishes to tell others OF
what he saw. Like many another
thing, to be appreciated it must be
seen.

BADLY. "

Excursions to Badly canon and
the climb to the top of this famous
old peak, are not infrequent, and in
fact are becoming the popular fea-
ture of all outing parties. Leaving
the Springs the road up the canon
is taken. This canon is walled on
its southern side for some distance
by grey cliffs that rise up to the Ia
BILE land some 500 feet-and on the
northern side by lower spurs, with
numerous side canons. The road for
n mile or two is almost level and af-
fords a considerable diversity of
view, with plenty of sunshine and
open air.
From Hobart's mill the road be-
comes narrower and sleeper, necess-
itating some actual climbing. For
several miles the condition of the
road is appalling, but the fascination
of delight more than counterbalance
the reality of danger, yet it is with
sigh of relief that Trout Springs are
reached. Then for a distance of
about IL miles, the road bends and
turns among the rocks, through val
leys and over hills, mountains, dells,
grass, pines, sunshine and clouds,
flowers and water, attracting atten-
ton and causing ordinations of de-
light and surprise.
TIE entrance TO Badly canon is
reached and the road from here on
to the point of actual climbing is
gradual ascent and can be travelled
by carriage.
Gradually the valley narrows and
we find ourselves ut the spring. Here
we abandon our conveyances and
"foot it" Tor the top. The ascent is
steep and perilous. High bluffs hem
us in, mountain walls of a dizzy
height, presenting irregular and jag
ged masses Of rock rise around us,
to the height of several thousand
feet. 1t is about four miles to the top
and We. one can not reach that point
without winding about so that the
distance is much greater. On we go,
over rocks, up aud down, round and
round, and at last we reach the top.
We pause and are filled with awe at
the realization that we have reached
the summit of Badly, monarch
among the surrounding peaks, in
royal dignity looking down on the
lesser peaks near by. More than TO-
500 feet above the sea level we find
ourselves upon a velvety lawn, be-
decked with fragrant and beautiful
flowers and trees luxuriant and dense,
whose piney odors fill the air. A
cool spring bubbles forth from the
rocks, affording refreshment TO the
weary tourist. From this spring,
which is near the head Of the trail,
we proceed 10 the edge of the cliffs,

yellow, the only difference between the
gymnasts being In the remarkably varied
assortment Of heights and widths, plated
locks and curls, done up into tight coils
on the head or neck
By the time the exercises were com

known to the human body, had been
brought into action. visitor In the

laughter that followed an occasional
failure to clear the rope or boom in

into curious, yet graceful positions, with
India a.rubber-like hexibility and endut

sailor fashion, or skinned the cat, as
the small boys have It.
