It is destined to become more famous than the ascent of the Alps.
For the first two miles the Hance trail is a sort of Jacob's ladder, zigzagging at an unrelenting pitch down a steep and nearly uniform decline caused by a sliding geological fault and centuries of frost and rain. It is safe and practicable for pack animals and for sound pedestrians ; ladies have occasionally made the descent, but at present it necessitates too hurried a scramble in places to attempt it confidently on horseback. ...At the end of two miles a comparatively gentle slope is reached, known as the First Level, some 2, 500 feet below the rim ; that is to say for such figures have to be impressed objectively upon the mind five times the height of St. Peter's, the Pyramid 14 LOOKING UP THE RANGE TRAIL.
of Cheops, or the Strasburg Cathedral ; eight times the height of the Bartholdi Statue of Liberty; eleven times the height of Bunker Hill Monument.
