is very promising but it is a long road to consumption for the copper. 

 We found a half million dollar copper smelter in the Kaibabs and a 

 saw mill, but only two men in the mountains besides the foresters, 

 and these were at the saw mill. They had a wagon road to Fredonia. 

 In fact you can wagon from the top of the Kaibab saddle to Fredonia 

 or most any other place in that region. An auto was driven 

 through from Salt Lake while we were there to Bright Angel, on 

 the north side of the canyon across from the hotel. But from Bass 

 Station to Trumbull, 125 miles, there will be no inhabitants through 

 the winter, except Bass and John working out assessments on new 



mines.
