Scenes of Grandeur but Rarely Visited. Towering Precipices and Rocks of Pecullar Formation Numerous Magnificent Waterfa'la, n Frate'sco Chrot icle The Hetch-Hetchy valley is situ- ated on the main Tuolumne river about twenty five miles west of the crest of the Sierras, and sixteen in an air line northwest of Yosemite. Like that valley, it is but a widening of the bottom of the river canyon from the common *“V" shape to that of a U,” aed the subsiitution of nearly al solid granite clitls for the ; ng earth.covered sides of the California canyon, oys are the only cxamples of this ck formation to be found in the Sierras, and, in fact, excced in height of walls, siz tural wonders and effect upon the observer any sumilar formation yet discovered in either hemisphere, A tew years after the These two wonders of Yoaemite were made known to the world, Hetch Hetehy was visited by some person or persons of very vivid imagination, who gave a very exaggerated report of itasconery, stating that it far exceeded the former valloy in height of waterfalls and clifts, A eurvey of Hoteh-Hetchy was made in 1866, by J. O. Gardver, acting under Professor Whitney, then State Geologist. In “Whitney's Guide- book,” published by authority of the ature, these exaggerations are cted, and n bricf description given, accompanied by a small and somewhat incomplete map of the val- ley. Anarticle on the valley, by John Muir, published in The Overland Monthly in 1873, completes the liter- atute of Hetch-Hetchy. Volumes have been written deseriptive of Yose- mite, but of her sister vallay, equally beautiful, and in some respects even more remarkable, our public prints, our books of travel, and, with one ex- ception, even our guide-books are silont, Here is a valley, v were it in Burope, Americans would cross the ccoan by thousands to see, Yet, lying, as it does, at our verydoors, we doubt 1f one Californian in a hundred knows of its existence. HOW TO KEACH HETCH-HETCHY, 1 propose, in the present article, to give a description of Hotch-Hetehy from the stand-point of an unbiased observer, whose only wish is to share with othera dwellers of the town the possession during the wacation months of this granite-walled garden of the zods. Hetch-Hetchy 18 reached from Colfax Springs, a small hotel at the toll-gate on the Big Oak Flat road to Yosemite, thirteenth miles east of Garrote. This is a wild spot, being the jurction of the middle and south forks of the Tuolumne with the main river, Half a mile west of the hotel the road winds along the canyon 2,000 feet above the river, and in view of cagcads on the south fork, and a ver- tical fall on the middle fork 200 feot in height., Further cast I crept down a blutf at the junction of the two forks, and from a perpendicular preci- pice 1,200 feet in height had a fine view of the middle-fork cascades directly opposite. The stream here falls fully 1,000 feet in half a mile, Securing at the Colfax Springs hotel as guide and general camp man Eu- gene Elwell, son of the proprietor, I set out, on the 1Gth of June, for Hetch-Hetchy and Mount Dana. Each was mounted upon a sturdy mustang, which, in addition to the weight of the rider, carried the rider's provisions for the trip, mostly canned goods and bread, A fair marksman can casily keep the larder supplied with game, Crossing the south and middle forks by substantial bridges— the latter stream, by the way, is well stocked with trout—the road up over a steep rocky point, and up the ridge between the middle fork and the main river, though pleasant, breezy forests of yellow, pitch and sugar pine, black oak and cedar, along gentle slopes, where the soft, velvety verdure and pretty white blossoms of the Elack fern, covering acres of ground, lend a cheerful contrast to its usual carpet of pine needlee; across beautiful mountain meadows; and along quiet ponds, where wild ducks disport among the lily pads and grasses, This is our road. At the Hog Ranch, fifteen miles from Colfax, ths wagon road eads, a trail leading from thence into the val- ley, a distance of ten miles. From Hog Ranch the trail rises rapidly, attaining, however, at its highest point, an altitude of but 4,850 feet, as against 7,400 feet on the Big Oak Flat to Yosemite, The de- scent into the valley is by a good zig- zag trail, rocky in places, but nowhere dflng\,roun, Hetch-Hetchy being easily accessible to ladies accustomed to horseback riding, A SUPPRESSING SCENE, From a rocky bluff a half-mile down the canyon Hetch-Hetchy comes first into open view. It is & surprise, The panorama is a noble one, embrac- ingin one vast ampitheater all the most notable objects of Interest of the valley., Yosemite cannot produce its equal. It isasif El Captain, the South Dome, Sentinel Rock and the Yosemite and Nevada falls were brought together into one picture. And then we must borrow Hetch- Heotchy’s broad green meadows to equel the panorama presented from the rock on which I now sit. The meadows, level as a floor, traversed b, the river, now swollen by melte: snows, but smooth aud placid, as if its waters had never known tumult and battle, and fringed by noble trees, from the foreground of the picture, Now imaglne this scene inclosed on three sides by nearly vertical walls of solid granite, rising from 2,000 feet, on the extreme left and right, to a grand cul. minating dome in the center of the picture, springing 3,200 teet above the level of the valley. Paint these cliffs a velvety gray, relieved by patches of white, red, yellow, brown, and verti. cal bands of jet black, Then throw over the foreground of these clifls two { Yosemite's best falls, Add Cali- fornia sunlight and sky, and the remenmbrance that you are miles away from the principal objects which form this gigantic amphithea‘er of nature, and you have in your mini's eye the first viow of Heteh-Hote hy. The valley is about four miles 1 length, and varies in width feom 150 yards in the center, to about ha'{ a mile md way f cither end. Tt is irregular in shape, though its general form is that of a crescent. The trend of the val. ley is east and west. Tho Tuolume river at this poiny is a_stream about 200 feet in width. The surface of the lower half of the valley is meadow and the soil ex tremely rich, This becomes in the winter and early spring a lake of sev- eral hundred acres oxtont, ciused by the extremo narrowness of the rocky gateway by which the river leaves the valley. The upper half is sandy and heavily wooded, the soil being poor and producing but litt'o grass. The two sections are divided by a low wall of rock stretching from the main south wall to the river and confining tie stream to a parrow channel, In general shape and contour of the olitts it groatly resombles Yoremite, yot has still a decided eharacter of its own, It is much smaller than the Yosewite, and, unlike that valley are grouped that neatly all may be soon 1n one panorama, You need to spond at least a week in Yosewito to see all its wonders. Hotoh-Hotehy may bo wore fully seen and oxplored in three days. Yot one may profitably spend a month in cither valle CLIFFS AND PECTLIAR 1§ The majestio clifls of the upper valloy are the highest, yot less ro- markable than those of tho lower, being moro slanting and less peeuliar ins The highest I huve named, the eat Bastern,” owing to its re markable resombiance to a mammoth ocean steamer in full s Its height abovo the valley is upwards of 4,000 feet. Just below is another cliff' of nearly cqual height, known ag “Chim- noy Rock.” Directly opposito is another cliff ot fully cqual hoight, but without distinctive uros, We have now approached the con- tral and narrow portion of the valley. Here, with bases but 180 yards apart and heads separated by scarcely more than a quarter of a mi'e of air, tower two cliffs, On (he south, and pushing its almostvertical front boldly out into the valley, riac nonument of solid granite 2,400 frot in height. It spirngs dirveetly from the valley, without debris worthy the name, and impresses the boholder as does no other eliff about the villey. This is known by the Iudians as Ko-lo-nah Rock, and is tho most prominent and wonderful feature of ! Hetchy. 1t slightly resembles, in position and contour, Sentinel Rock in Yosemito, but is a far mora wondoe:ful f i The view from Kolondh is a grand one. Tt is easily climbed froma point on the trail ¢ into the val- ley, and T shall visit it ere I leave. Opposite Kolonah a sleping cliff’ rises 2,000 feet, from the summit of which springs upward a smooth granite dome, lifting his hoary head 3,200 above the meadow and river below. The grand old pines which orvament the dome crest shrink to mere shrubsin the dis- tance. This dome, though inferior in size and shape to the South Dome in Yosemite, prosents from the . valley level a most imposin, pearance Lhnn does even that magoigeent rock, when similarly viewed. is only when seen from Glacier Point that the South Dome assumes its true grandeur. This dome has never reccived a name, I leave its christening to abler hands, GARDINER ROCK, Just west of the last described dome is a cliff, which I have ventured to name “Gardiner Rock,” in honor of the featless engincer who, in com- pany with Mesars, King and Hoflman, imperiled his lifc a hundred times upon tho precipicos of this canyon and the high Sierra, As the result of the work of these fearless men we have the only typographical map of a high mountain " country, approaching curacy and detail, ever yet issued, Gardiner Rock, then, it shall be, 1In shapo this cliff 1s tho Hotch-Hetchy El Capitan, its face and clear-cut cor- ner bearing a closo resomblance to that famous rock. It is, according to Gardiner, 1800 fect in heigt, and on a large portion of its face absolutely ical. From this point the chifs de- crease in height and become more sloping, till they nearly meet at tho narrow river-pass at the foot of the valley. MAGNIFICENT WATERFALLS, Its waterfalls are three in number, besides numerous ephemeral torrents which slide and leap down the cliffs in the early spring or after heavy show- ers, At the upper end of the valley the canyon divides, as in Yosemite, the Tuolumne coming down the right fork., Here enters what is known as Rancheree cre Both river and creck are crossed by narrow sheep bridges, and we sct out on a half-mile scramble up the rocks overlooking the Ranchereo ciscades, Any one wish- ing to gain a clear and perfect idea of ta attractions pandemonium should visit these falls. The Rancherce creek, a stream forty feet in width, enters a narrow gorge with virtical walls from 75 to 175 feet |y Down this gorge it plunges |, in height, for nearly half a mile, making five dis- tinct falle, its unure descent being nearly 600 feet. In this passage the stream everywhero fills its narrow can- yon, which, with its straight-cut, smooth granite walls, would appear to have been rent assunder by some terrific action of nature, Such another battle of the waters against rock can, . perhaps, be nowhere wit- nessed from 8o good a vantage-ground, The cliff sides being perfectly upright, with clean-cut edges, allow one to walk with safety along the verge and look down into the foamlashed watcrs which fill the gorge below and roar like & lion in maddening pain, At the foot of every fall clouds of smoke-like spray fill the gorge, in which form miniature rainbows wherever the sun- light finds an entrance to the scene. The wild beauty of these welled cas- cades T have nover soon equalled any- where in the Sierra, and the case with which they may be viewed even by ladies unused to fatigue, is not the least of their atiractions. Below the gorge the creek spreads out upon a broad table of wranite and takes its final spring into the valley in & broad, fanliko cascade, in which may be seen apray effects of great beauty, TU-EE U LA LAM, From the summit of Gardiner Rock, about midway of the north side of the valley, leaps Tu-ee-u-la-lah, one of the thost beautiful waterfalls to be tound in the entire range of the Sierras, 1t 18 at the lip about thirty “SATURDAY, JULY 8 1852 17 feot in width, and makes a clear jump of from 800 to 1,000 feet. Hore it strikes the oliff, and dividing into smaller stroams, finds its way down tho sloping debris pile to the valley below. As it leaves the cliff itis clean out, and darts downward a few hundred feet completely intact—a snow white ribbon of foam. Then it suparates into watery rockets, which run a made race, as if in hasto to dash agamnst the rocks below. These, in turn, are resolved into a beautiful lace-like drapery of mist and spray the buflet of every passing bre In a fresh wind it sways back and forth a hundred feet across the face of the cliff. Tu-ec-u-la-lah is higher than Bridal Veil, possosses moro than the beauty of that fall and far more of grandeur. Just cast of Gardiner Rock, and but half a mile enst of Tuco-u-alah, 15 Heteh. Hotehy or Wapama Fall, both being in plain view from all parts of the contral portion of the valley, Hoteh Hotehy can scarcoly bo eallod a wator- fall, boing littlo more than a geand eascade or water chute. Dut naa cas. endo it oxcecds anything 1 over saw., Its height has been variously esti- mated at from 1,000 to 1,800 feot, Ita position rendera caleulation by tri. angulation extremely diflicalt.,” My computations by that method and ob- sorvattons with the aneroid barometer place the falls to the debris pito at 1,- 500 foet. There are two nearly ver- ticall falls, the rapida between do- tloct at an angle of about 30 do- groes, Tho fall is walled on one side by the vertical face of Gardiner Rock, but on the east is open, thus affording a viow of ita full length from tho up porend of tho valloy. Tho stream forming Heteh-Hotchy 1 fully soventy-five feot in width, anc carries nearly double as much water as Yosemite creek. Its doscont is ponderous, grand, awo-in spiring, and in marked contrast to that of Tu-ee u-la-lah, which is light- ness and fairy-like graco itself, Hetch- Hetchy fills 1ts gorge-like confines with smoke like spray, and its roar is heard for miles up and down tho val- loy. Ttis amilk white mass of foam, showit® no color, as do some of the Yosemito falls, Viewed from a cen- tral point in the valley Heteh-Hetohy has the appearance of ons unbroken vertical fall, and from that standpoint is a grand n-\mnollu Thus viewed it exceeds all other Siorra waterfalls ex- copt Vosemito in beight, and even that fall in unt of wator. groater contrast in waterfall can wol be imagined than is presented in Tu- ee-u-la lah and Hetoh- Hotey, and we doubt if such another is anywhere else presonted on one granite wall, THE VALLEY, Tie valley is 0 foot above the son, Suow falls hoavily in winter, and no ono hag passed tho entire year liere. Thero is a largo vatiety of timber, oak, pine, cedar and soft maplo being the predominent growths. The flora 18 varied, flowers and orass growing on the north side of the river to the height of a man's shoul- ders, The game consists principally ducks, doves, gray equirrels and beare, We name the bear last bo- cause it is the last game the average tourist wants to meet. Bears abound among the adjacent cliffs in large num- bers, and descend to thevalley, where they are often seen. Mr. Screech kills a dozen or more every season, shoot. ing a large one near his éamp, the day of ‘my arrival. They will molest no one, however, unless first attacked, and need not be feared. They are the black, brown and cinnamon varietier, no grizzlies over entering the valloy. Other game, such as mountain quail, grouso and deer are numerous on the mountains and surrounding the val- ley. The river was stocked with trout a couple of yoars since, but angling will not be good for some time to come, The road and trail to Hetch-Hetchy aro freo to all. Feed is abundant, Partics can drivo to Hog Ranch, but ten milcs from the valloy, where there are excellent facilitios for camping, and ride in on horseback next day. There is a small storo at Colfax Sprivgs, twenty-five miles distant, and largor ones at Garrote, thirteon milos farther away. All provisions but meat should be brought, Mutton can be bought in the valley, and game is plenty. Kor a cheap, enjoyable trip, particularly to those averse to trail-riding, and parties limited as to time, 1 would recommend Hatch- Hetchy, Lesser than the famous Yosemite, it has yet its own distinctive charms, which grow upon one with every day he lingers within its granite- wallod depths, W.
