As the eye travels north past the Grand Canyon and the Kaibab forest-plainly visible on the north rim -the sacred Navajo mountains of Utah are visible. Three hundred miles eastward the Continental Divide seems not far away, while on clear days the higher peaks of Colorado can be seen and in the other direction, the San Jacinto peaks of California.

Up San Francisco peaks a fine road leads to the glorious summit of Arizona's highest mountains. Other roads in every direction from Flagstaff take the motorist to Summit mountain and the lava beds, the grave of an ancient volcano; the Bottomless Pits whose depths have never been plumbed; Ice Caves which are presumed to be of glacial origin, as no new ice forms to replace what is removed; and many ancient ruins of Indian cliff dwellings and pueblo life, which are con-
