27 ship raises out of the water at sea, on the third day we could distinguish the snow line distinctly, on the fourth day Pikes Peak with its sugar loaf head rost into sight, on the fifth day the whole mountain range wose out of the plain just like a ship covered by the waves and suddenly emerging into sight. It was truly a grand looking sight, and one that I can never forget there was something terribly grand in those tremendous rocks covered with eternal snow I felt so elevated at the sight that I considered that I was already well repaid for all the trial and hardships I endured in coming here. On the sixth and seventh day they continued to raise showing new beauties of landscape every moment till on the eight morning when just as the sun rose we stood apparantly at their very base and it seemed as if they were hanging over us though still twenty five miles distant.
