  TWO 
  ELK 
  CREEK. 
  

  

  407 
  

  

  of 
  game. 
  The 
  good 
  grass 
  extends 
  frequently 
  up 
  to 
  the 
  highest 
  part 
  of 
  

   the 
  spurs, 
  which 
  are 
  here 
  nearly 
  as 
  high 
  as 
  the 
  Eagle 
  River 
  Range 
  itself. 
  

   Patches 
  of 
  timber 
  also 
  run 
  in 
  streaks, 
  very 
  often 
  to 
  the 
  uppermost 
  part 
  

   of 
  the 
  spurs; 
  but 
  owing 
  to 
  the 
  great 
  elevation 
  and 
  greater 
  exposure 
  

   they 
  degenerate 
  in 
  size 
  and 
  luxurious 
  growth. 
  

  

  TWO 
  ELK 
  CREEK. 
  

  

  This 
  creek 
  enters 
  Eagle 
  River 
  opjiosite 
  Roche 
  Moutonnee 
  Creek, 
  has 
  

   also 
  a 
  length 
  of 
  6 
  miles, 
  and 
  forms, 
  like 
  Weary 
  Man's 
  Creek, 
  aright 
  angle 
  

   in 
  its 
  junction 
  with 
  Eagle 
  River. 
  Its 
  characteristics 
  are 
  the 
  same 
  as 
  

   those 
  which 
  we 
  observed 
  in 
  the 
  last-described 
  creek. 
  The 
  same 
  may 
  be 
  

   said 
  of 
  Resolution 
  Creek, 
  a 
  stream 
  of 
  4^ 
  miles 
  in 
  length, 
  which 
  enters 
  

   Eagle 
  River 
  above 
  the 
  Upper 
  Caiion 
  between 
  Weary 
  Man's 
  Creek 
  and 
  

   the 
  head 
  of 
  Eagle 
  River. 
  

  

  Besides 
  the 
  latter 
  creek, 
  there 
  are 
  six 
  more 
  caSon-gulches 
  descending 
  

   from 
  the 
  Eagle 
  River 
  Range 
  down 
  to 
  the 
  river, 
  all 
  of 
  which 
  bear 
  more 
  

   or 
  less 
  the 
  same 
  characteristics, 
  except 
  that 
  in 
  some 
  places 
  they 
  show 
  

   more 
  eroded 
  faces 
  than 
  the 
  former, 
  which 
  is 
  particularly 
  the 
  case 
  in 
  the 
  

   upper 
  portion, 
  where 
  they 
  connect 
  with 
  the 
  main 
  Eagle 
  River 
  Range.
