Annual report upon explorations and surveys in the department of the Missouri . e river interpose too great for theagility of the trout. While this fish of a superior size and flavor may be taken in thePark below, none can be found in the Grand Canon nor in Bakers Park above. Leaning over the top of the bank at the edge of the canon, with a firm hold on arock or an overhanging tree and gazing down upon the water white with the foam ofits dashing and surging under and against the great black rocks that obstruct andconfine it, there is a feeling of awe that overcomes the behoider. When encamped near the Box Canon of the Animas, some hours were occupied inattempts to reach the waters edge at several points, which were unsuccessful, owingto the obstruction of vertical walls. In order to avoid these obstructions, the route ofthe road was changed from the bottom of the Grand Canon, about 19 miles distantfrom Silverton. A high hill was ascended by three steep gradients in a zigzag, themountain slope encircled, high retaining walls being essential, therefore, and Cascade.

Swinging to the west nearly 2 miles the Cliff Lakes are reached, around which, for 2miles along their eastern sides, the road passes. These are clear and lovely sheets ofwater, varying in width to 600 yards with an average of about 300, beyond whosewestern banks rise huge mountain slopes reflected below, the surfaces frequented bywater-fowl, the road almost on a level along the shore, and shaded by lofty pine andaspen. Thence to the south by a succession of easy slopes, almost a natural route, be-tween rolling hills, the road passes to the park below. The road is well ditched, and, where needed, inclined drains of dry stone are provided. All the bridges are strongand well made, the upper surf
