The mystery of St. Vrain I was told that there was a good path for pedestrians, & even for mules, to the foot of the Mountain, & that it had been [[unclear]] scaled. The Mountain to the South of Long's Peak appears to have a precipitous face of some thousands of feet on its side towards the Peak; & there is distinctly visible, lying between the two a green Park. A Park in the language of the Mountains is a large expanse of level grass-clad land up among the hills. There are many of them in this range. They are always well watered & abundantly stocked withgame. This Park, & this Peak, are by the the paths I have past mentioned forty five miles distant from St. Vrain.
