American Big-Game Hunting 



beyond were mountains piled on mountains; 



and I could see clearly the grand Teton 



range springing up from Jackson's Lake : 



Mount Hayden, some fourteen thousand feet 



high, with Mount Moran just north of it, — 



Hayden rising majestically from the surface 



of the lake thousands of feet, with sharp 



slopes and walls of bare rock above, and its 



base buried in a darkness of pine and spruce. 



Their snow-covered summits and immense 



glaciers must impress any beholder with a 



strong sense of sublimity. It is said that 



on the summit of one of the Tetons there 



is an inclosure made of rocks several feet 



in height, built by what long-vanished and 



forgotten race of builders no man will ever 



know.
