Th,re are many words that more or less
aptly describe the budding beauties of the
spring and the rich dissolving glories Of
the summer in the mountains, but
magnificent" seems alone fitting term
to apply to the radiant grandeur of the
mountains In the fall. when autumn
passes through the valley and up the
mountain side, painting the forests with
a prodigal brush In resplendent hues of
crimson and gold. but when to this is
added the delicate white and feathsry
tracery of winter, then indeed the climax
of regal splendor Is reached.
Yet this effect is often seen in the Craw-
ford Notch, and the memory of its beau
ties will long remain with those who are
fortunats enough to witness It,
Far down the Notch. nature seems to
have thrown over the lower mountains,
