DR.. Eldridge gave The Sentinel report
or piece Of information this morning
which should be in the possession Of ev-
cry man woman and child in Grand
Junction. Many people are constantly
asking what the distance Is to the rim
rock of the Grand Mesa and the heighth
Of the rock from the level of this city.
DR.. Eldridge to satisfy his own curios-
ty several years ago, paid to secure the
information. At the time a portion Of
the hydrographic survey party was in
the city and they took the measurements
from the city park. The result was as
follows. The distance to the first point
OF the rim rock is twenty-eight and
eight-tenths miles. The height from the
level OF the street in this city is 5,02S
feet. A half dozen different distances
and heighths have been given to tourists
and others, but the above is correct.
