AN OPEN-AIR AMUSEMENT. 
Ta the National Forests is the last frontier where it is a man’s pride to know how toride and to handlea gun or 
a rope, to be familiar with the wild life of the forests and plains, and to be able to take care of himself in 
the woods. 
The San Isabel, on account of its proximity to many large towns 
and cities, offers an ideal location for a summer home, and the popu- 
larity of the Forest in this respect is rapidly increasing. Many 
beautiful sites are located near Beulah and Rye in the Wet Mountain 
division, some of which have already been applied for. Unexcelled 
opportunities for summer-home building are also to be found on 
Middle Taylor Creek near Hermit Lake, on the Huerfano River in 
the Sangre de Cristo Range, and near Walsenburg and La Veta in 
the Spanish Peaks country. 
Application for term permits for summer homes should be made 
to the Supervisor of the Forest at Westcliffe, or to the District Forester 
at Denver.
