J: A volcanic mass of rugged spurs radiating from a great central
core; points and ridges rising, beautifully red, from immense fields
of snow. D. and the writer call it Mt. McDonald, but having made no
survey, the purely sentimental report which we could send to the map
makers in Washington would not suffice as a record there.
K: The crater of Specimen Mountain is worn away on one side by water,
and the crater now forms the head of a ragged gulch. Near the head of
this gulch is a slope of loose stone, as steep as loose stone can lie,
which has a vertical height of 1500 or 2000 feet.
L: Among the Greeks an idiot was a man who thought only of
his private affairs, a privately minded man.
