FREAK OF CYCLONE IN
BIG HORN MOUNTAINS

One of the strongest and most I'M
common freaks of nature took place
two weeks ago at the head of Five
Springs, on the range of mountains
belonging to the Big Horn chain,
almost due east of Lowell.
No one saw it at the time, al
though many remember when two
storms seemed to meet in that local
ity, which were going in opposite
directions. Not until week or so
after the wind did its work did any
one visit the ground, and from all
information obtainable there were
no men or stock of any kind in
jured.
From indications which are
written in the work of devastation
the cyclone struck the timber on
the west side of the mountain;
travelling east and up the hill, 1t
swept everything before it. Some
of the timber in the west, trees
measuring from two to four feet in
diameter, were broken off as though
4
they were stra VS.. r. B. Mondur
and George w. Johnson went over
the ground and they say one may
walk on fallen logs the whole length
of the path, which is more than
five miles long.
What causes could bring such
wind to strike this locality in this
manner is not known. 1t seemed
to have just struck the ground, as
1t were, and after tearing things
up short distance, left no further
traces of ruin. The power of the
wind must have been tremendous.
When a patch of such timber is
completely leveled, scarcely a tree
left standing, in few moments,
the atmosphere must be blowing
terrifically. Old residents say they
have never seen anything like it in
Wyoming before and never have
seen any traces of such freaks II
