30_113 17 May 1914. - Road is right one, and we drive over a high flat of the Mt. pass and turn midst rock piles westward over a lovely mesa of yuccas where we have a view of a great [?] bowl surrounded by desert mountains lying below us south east. There was the usual brush, creosote, bladder sage etc. We came on down several miles toward Pleasant Valley, the sloping mesa more and move diversified with strange uplifts of great rock blocks piled and tilted on one another. Round one of them we came upon a lovely slope with great yellow strands of Cassia armata flung down it. It was very fine. Desert animals live in these rock buttes. We heard strange complaining sounds, as of young birds complaining for food. The sound issued from a cleft in a great boulder as big as a house and proved to come from bats. Cont. p. 126 |
