Remarks

["Aug. 6.. . . At 5 P. M. we went to our first camp for our remaining baggage. From this point at this hour the rocks of the prcipitous summit (under whose south side that camp is placed), lit by the declining sun, were a very light gray, with reddish-tawny touches from the now drying Aira flexuosa on the inaccessible shelves and along the seam." Journal 14: 18-19. 1860]
