prepared to accommodate something
over a score Of fishermen Besides
there is fine camping ground on

II. G. trains. Mr.. and Mrs F. l.
Tuttle are stopping at Seeconota
this summer, Mrs. TultIe to cook for
the guests and Mr.. Tuttle to act as
guide.
While j. r. Berg devotes most Of
his time to ranching on his pretty
l60 acre tract, which we will de
scribe more particularly next week,
he has within few yards of his
home some of the best fishing
ground on the river and is putting
up a new house 24x30 for his own
home, expecting to rent his four
room cabin to fishermen. By mutual
consent the Gunnison resorts charge
s. day for board and room and
80 cents a day for camping pri-
vileges. We heard of no departures
from these rates, which seem reason
able enough.
Although A. X. Stevens takes
care Of GOO acres of ranch land and
horses and cattle galore, he tells Us
his friends have practically com
PEELED him to build cabins for their
accommodation. just at the lola
bridge he has put up two new cabins
and rs erecting a hotel 2ox30 feet
with five rooms. All are in the
rustic log s~le. Besides this Mr.
Stevens has two other cabins already
rented for a considerable time
Last year he had to give up the
ranch bunk house to tourists and Is
planning to keep ahead of them this
time. Speaking of high water Mr..
Stevens tells us that in 1888 and
1884 he saw the Gunnison a foot
higher than it mas beer this season.
