The Flaming Gorge, a view on Green River, very near the location where Major Powell launched his expeditions for the Colorado River.

The perpendicular bluff to the right is nearly 1,500 feet above the level of the river, and of a bright red and yellow.

Beaver dams on Henrys Fork. This stream was at one time thickly inhabited by beavers, but they have been driven out by the advance of civilization. There are many left, however, in some of the quiet, secluded nooks, and in such a place we found the subject which affords us so excellent an illustration of their habits. They have here constructed a dam across the channel of the fork, about 50 yards in length and from 3 to 5 feet in height. Daggett County, Utah. 1870.
