UTAH
ByT. MAXEY
@. Western Newspaper Union.

II ORTY-FIVE miles north of Bluff,
l. in Southwestern Utah, within a
space of about five miles. are three
natural bridges which are understood
to be the largest of their kind in
existence.
Named Sipapu (Gate of Heaven),
Kachima Guardian Spirit) and Owa-
chomo Crock Mound), these bridges
were discovered in 1895 The three
constitute a National monument, being
so proclaimed by Presidential an
nouncement In 1905
The largest of the three has an ex-
treme height of 222 feet and is e.
feet thick at the top of the arch,
which is 2S feet wide. 1t has span
of 261 feet. the height of the span
being 157 feel.
One has but to fix those figures In
his mind to gain fair idea of the
immensely of these wonders which
Nature fashioned from the lofty walls
of White canyon.
Near the monument are some caves
and ruins which are believed to have
been the homes Of a prhistOric race
which inhabited this section.
These bridges are best reached by
stage or team from the railroad Sta
ton at Thompson. Utah. to Monticello.
thence by pack-horse-a jour ey
through a strange. deserted-looking,
but interesting land.
