With the exception of the Grand

nous locality in the West than Death
valley, known as the vale below the

OF Mt. Blancos in the great Amer
lean desert, the Mt. Blanco or Death
valley is the greatest of its name.
1t rises like an enormous white breast
against the terra Gotta ridge OF Funeral
range, close to Furnace Creek canyon,
a great rent that cleaves the east ram
part Of Death valley. Around IL is a
rolling waste OF bald yellow hills, none
Of which Is a mere knoll. and Il towers
q good 1000 feet above them. The low
land Of Death valley, sinking for several
miles westward, is probably 2,500 feet
lower.
