Spray Falls. On the northwestern slope of the mountain. The

 tion, 5,300 feet above sea level. 



Spray Park. Above Spray Falls lies this extensive and most 

 beautiful park. Its elevation is from 6,000 to 8,000 feet above sea

 Spray Falls. The name originated at the falls and was later ex- 

 tended to the creek and park.

 River in the northwestern portion of the Park. The name seems 

 to be Indian, but its origin has not been ascertained.
