Moccasin Bar, Rattlesnake Hill must be surmounted, but Priest's fa- 

 mous hotel is at the summit, and its promise of good cheer will sus- 

 tain the climb. Here and beyond quail are everywhere in evidence. 

 If with its balsamic mountain air, inspiriting scenery and abundant 

 game the trip grows in satisfaction, as it is likely to do, and you go 

 beyond Big Oak Flat to Crockers, you will find a cultivated home with 

 all the accessories of refined life, and near-at-hand unfished trout streams 

 to be added to your gunning enjoyments. No sportsman could regret a full 

 week's outing on these lines, and Yosemite is only half a day's distance 

 from Crocker's, with intervening grove of Sequoia giganteas for your 

 admiration and tape-line.
