V. S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY 



BULLETIN- 707 PLATE LVI 



.4. KAGLE \ ALLEY NEAR EDWARDS. 



Although most of the valley of Eagle River between Miiiturn and ^^'alcott is more than 

 7,000 feet above sea level, good crops of alfalfa, the more hardy grains, and potatoes 

 are raised. The ranch buildings are usually substantial and the ranches well kept. 

 In the soft light of the evening the fields of waving grain make a very pretty picture.

B. RECENT VOLCANO IN EAGLE VALLEY. 



From the dark hill in the middle background came the last volcanic outburst in this part 

 of the country. Fragments of dark lava still cling to the slopes, showing that the lava 

 flowed down to the bottom of the valley. I'hotograph by jMarius R. Campbell. 



C. EDGE OF RECENT LAVA FLOW. 



The lava flowed out from the volcano shown in B until it reached the river; there it 

 stopped. This is a view of the edge of the flow where it is washed by Eagle River.
