The high point on The Southern Tier ACA route.
(Former home to the Warm Springs Apache; the place is stunningly beautiful. No wonder they defended it so staunchly, first from the Spanish, then the Mexicans, and lastly from the "united" American Army, post civil war - on behalf of the miners, ranchers, and "settlers".)
Thanks to all the European-Americans (like Aldo Leopold, John Muir, Gaylord Nelson, Clinton P. Anderson, and others) who had the foresight and sense to protect some of these places from "progress", before they were all gone.
"In wilderness is the salvation of the world."
Be good to your mother.
