Emerald Lake, Pagosa Springs and Indian Country Visit
A Colorado letter describes Emerald Lake's depth and beauty near Bayfield, the volcano history, and pine forests. It recalls Mesa Verde cliff dwellers, Pagosa Springs hot springs, and nearby Ute Apache Navajo Pueblo reservations with notes on Ute life, war dances, and Sun Dance rituals. The writer plans to tour Grand Canyon, Petrified Forest, and Aztec ruins before settling in Phoenix.
