Kt'SPHN'HION bridge ncross the Col oriulo river In tho depths of thu Urnnlto Rorgo In Grnntl Cuiiyon Nn tloiml park I That ineana that you and your horse can get ncross tho Grand canyon from L'l Tovnr to the North rl t n. And that niuan.s that yon will get sonio entirely new vIowh of the Grand cunyon nnd of the aurroundliiK country. For tho North rlui lt J.00O feet higher than tho South rim. rrcsuinolity yon will ho able tonso this suspen sion bridge this season. The nullonal park service is working on the bridge nowund has been for roini' time, llut jou can enslly guess that building this bridge Is some considerable Job especially If you lmvo ever traveled llrlght Angel trail, down which nil tho materials and tools lmvo to be packed. Anyway, here's n sample of tho ,1:1ml of doings Unit may happen any minuto on that futnoa.1 trail. Homer .7. Arnn Is one of the packers engnged In petting rtuff down Wright Angel trail. Tho other dar Aifwna taking down a string of animals. Sov crol of them were loaded with TNT for blasting. At one of the Midden turns one of tho pack anlmnls llppotl. Th? rest got excited. Pretty soon ono animal went off the trail. All eluven In tho string tvero tlcir together, m-foro long two more were drugged off tho trail. About this tlmo Arnn suc ceeded In getting Into tho middle of tho mlxtip. lie cut tho other eight animals looso and they vtittd on the trail. ' Of course all three of the anlmnls that fell olt were UlJeiL One fell I.OOOeet without Injuring his pack- Ono fell 200 feet without exploding the 150 pounds of TNT In his pack. And that's what getting tho bridge stuff down Bright Angel trull Is like. A. look ut tho map gives the lay of tho land, llrlght Angel trail begins near 121 Tovnr on tho South rim nud winds down to tho Colorado at the bottom of Granlto gorge. Ilormlt trail begins farther to tho west untl also goes down to tho river. Port of tho way down, tho Ton to trail, running east nud west, connects Hermit and llrlght Angel trails. At the foot of llrlght Angel trail there is nn aerial cabletram, which Is used to ferry across venturesome visitors, Thu cross marks tho slto nf the suspension bridge. Tho now trail will run cortb along Bright Angel crock. Tho visitor will ascend to the North rim ut llrlght Angel point. II Ix 10 miles across tho Grand canyon here. The descent from El Tovur to tho river Is nbout ,W feet. The North river Is about 0,000 feet bove tho floor of the Grand canyon. The vlow from tho North rhn Is radically dlirer- i n. Tho temples lie In Its foreground. Ono looks J down upon them at close range. Tho Granlto gorge is miles In tho background, nnd tho oppatlto rim presents nn apparently straight wall. Tho ob server Is twelve or fifteen hundred feet higher thun tho south rim and noes over It thu denert ' plain for ninny miles south, with a' fur horizon of distant mountains. Many who have seen hoth prefer the south rim lcv, which has the temptes lu broad perspettlvo and confines tho eyo to tho xpectucle of the canyon. Other prefer the north rim tocausc of Its closeness to the temples am) Us srnup of distant liorl.uns. In tjio future thotisr.nds t travelers will not be content until they see Uio canyon from boih rims. Jlulhllng the suspension bridge, onco thu ma terial Is on the spot, will not bo dllllcult. The worst of the Job Is getting tho btuft to the slto tin niulo-tiuck. The material for tho bridge will consist principally of steel wire, hovon-olgliths and three-eighths of an liu'h lopi-etlvoly lu diameter', lenvy wooden timbers, strips' of flooring of nine foot length ami tools and blasting powder. The matter of getting Uio long cables down Is going to icqulro thu Immersing of at leust four luulus tun rtcui nn(l Htrlnuliig of tho load betweon them. The iitnln cables will wolgh between 700 nnd bOO IHiuuds apiece. A cable will bo gathered Into sev TI colls, with about twenty to ililriy feet of lacU between oach coll, Those colled edition will Ibrti be put on mules, u coll to each. At tho bridge site u auchor of steel rails and roucrctc will bo constructed In lho solid rock. The upper cilblos will then be carried across to tho north Hide nud secured In llko fashion, ' From end is id these upper cables will meafciiro about 000 fret, Eighty feet below them tho lloor of the fcridgo will bo anehoreil to tho walls of tho gorge. J'rom the overhead cables "side cables will como down and run through tho heavy timbers. The nfno-foot planking will be riveted to those rafters and n hog mesh wiring will bo strung ulong either ldo of the bridge to protect tourists.

Grand Canyon Nntlonal pnrk was established In 11)10 nnd was dedicated In 1020. Tho suspen sion bridge Is but one of mnny Improvements planned by tho national park service. Concerning tho suspension bridge nnd other things Director Stephep T. Mather says, In part: "Tho park Is both a summer and winter resort. Though thus far developed by prlvafo capital, tho results generally have been nchloved with refine ment nnd success. Tho character of existing build ings Is commendable, nnd, although considerable adjustment will havo to bo done In tho location of certain futuro buildings, this can rendlly he ef fected. Our landscape engineer hns studied tho futuro layout of nil buildings, and construction for both tho public operators nnd tho pnrk ad ministration will proceed ulong wcll-lald-out lines. "Although the first appropriation wns not largo for the amount of work to bo done, since It amounted to only 10,000, theso funds wero care fully distributed nnd sonio Improvements iiccom pllshod. In pnrt theso consisted in tho construction of a Btuiilo nnd garngo building, of n mess house, ranger quarters, which are being temporarily used for administrative otllces, and Improvements to a log cnbln now being utilized by tho acting super intendent as a. resldcnco. Theso are nil at the Grand canyon administrative slto. Itangor nnd construction nnd maintenance" forces have been established, and there Is at this wrltlug n com petent nucleus for carrying on nil the park work under present conditions. Tho appropriation of $00,000 for tho present fiscal year enabled mo to plan 'somewhat more extensively for actual im provements. "Ono Important piece of construction la n sus pension bridge across the Colorado river at tho foot of tho south-sldu llrlght Angel trail to connect with the north-sldo Bright Angel trail. At pres ent tho only method of crossing Is In a small swinging en go traveling over a binall cable, which only tho most venturesome persons euro to uso; un'.muls cannot be transported. Without some means of animal travel from tho south to the north sldo of tho park It will be dllllcult to administer the north rlm or provide for Its proper develop ment and uso by park visitors. "Tho north rlm, which Is, from my own observn Ion this summer, moro beautiful than the south rlm. Is practically undeveloped by roads nnd trails. As soon as this first suspension bridge 13 com pleted ncrostf tho Colorado river It Is planned to reconstruct n portion of tho Bright Angel trail on the north sldo of the river, which will innko tho north rlm easily accessible." Later another bridge across the Colorado will bo constructed near the foot of the Hermit trail, which lu turn Is to be connected by a trail to tho north rlm as a part of the trail development planned on the nortlr side of the park; also nn nddltlonal bridge bhonle be placed In the vicinity of the preseut Bass cable way (about 8 miles to tho west). I predict north and south rim travel will constitute- the most In teresting nnd popular of all our scenic park trips. "With tho construction of theo bridges travel between tho north and south rlm will cause tho establishment of Uddltlonnl cntups. One of those camps hhould bo located at homo coincident phtco on tho trail, which will bo constructed from tho Hermit suspension bridge through to the Plateau trail, and as near tho north rlm ns It will bo pos sible to tecuro water. Expansions Into the Indian Gardens camping area ure planned for the Im mediate future. Those cumps will In ft vrny sup plement the El Tovur hotel nnd the Hermit camp on tho BouUi hide, and also tho present Wyllo es tablishment on the north rlm. Tho lnllux of tour lsta curries with It nn Increased demund for camp ing ppnee, and also Inrgor hotel facilities, and, us quickly ns this demund Is recognized, tho fucllltlw will bo expanded. "Our most Important present rond project at tho canyon undoubtedly Is the rcpavement of tho Him road. Only horso travel was permitted on thix road; I directed the opening of the road to motor travel, and tho public traiispoHatlon serv ice was changed from horso to motor-propelled vehicles. Since then the rond has suffered 11 great deal from the heavy trnvel over It. Eight miles in length, It was paved In 1013 by tho Santa Fe railroad In order that nn attractive trip might bo available for winter visitors. It was practically worn out when taken over by us, and Is only single width nnd not adapted to two-way travel. "I have also submitted an estlmnto to commenco tho construction of n rlm road eastward from El Tovnr toward Desert Vlow. Upon Its completion, within two or three years, we will hnvc u rlm rood drive from Hermit Best on the west of olllclnl headquarters to Desert View, n distance of over 10 miles. For scenic beauty It will challenge com parison. "Tho estimates also Include nn Item for secur . lng n right of way for the EI Tovnr-Dcsert Vlow Win rond. I hope this expenditure of government funds will not be necessary, us I feel that the priv ate holdings which will be crossed by the pro posed road will be sulllclcntly benefited by Its construction to mnke It to the advnntngo of tho owners of these kinds to donate a right of way. I feel sure theso owners are so public spirited as to tuko this point of vlow, and that In donating this right of way they are not only benefiting Uieiu selves nnd Grand Canyon park but also the people who visit tho park. "In addition to tho Improvement and mainte nance work on tho 111m road and other upkeep work on tho other park roads, Uio presents El Tovnr-Dosert View road has been widened, straightened, nnd reshaped for about one-hnlf Its, entire length. Many dangerous curves and grades liavo been eliminated and tho general condition of tho road linproved. "A complete telephono system which will con nect tho north nnd south rlm of the canyon nnd tho ranger stations that will be built for tho ranger force Is ono of our future needs. This can be postponed until next year, und I havo not In cluded It In my estimates to congress. It may be practicable to connect the uorth and south rims by wireless, either telephono or telegraph, and this question Is receiving careful study. "There ure some developments planned by tho Santa Fo railroad In Grand canyon, one of which Is the construction of n water system which will probubly have for Its source Bright Angel creek on the north side of (ho river, and possibly the establishment of a small power plant on that creek. The establishment of nn adequate water supply for the south rlm of the cunyon Is n serious problem nnd on that must 9on bo definitely .solved. Wuter on tho north rlm near Bright Angel Point Is secured nt present from several small springs, Unit with little Improvement will probably be ndequnte lu quantity and quality. On the south rlm of the cunyon, however, the hotel and railroad havo to haul their water by train from Del Wo, about 1L'5 miles distant. Every gallon of water has to come that distance. Tho tremendous dally cost of this Is nt once apparent, and the great desirability of Installing kouio system by which wuter can bo pumped either from the lloor of the canyon, about 1 mile below the surface of the rlm. or from elsewhere Is obvious. It Is ap parent that travel may f-ometlnio reach n point I where with tho present method of securing water wo will not be able to securo a sulllclent quantity vtf that precious fluid to supply each traveler. 1 "Thu organic act creating this park nuthorlzei us to negotiate with tho county of Coconino for! the purchase of Its rights In tho Bright Angel toll toad and trail, and to report to congress the tonus upon which this property can be secured. An ef fort hns been made the pnst year to arrive at some satisfactory birsls of settlement with tho county of Coconino for tho transfer of tho Bright Angel trail, but thus fur without dellnlto results. Our , engineer department has, howovor, made prelim inary examination of the situation, covering in fact tho entire trail situation lu the pnrk. ' "Probably the greatest problem confronting the J service upon Its tuklng over tho administration of tho park was the existence of the many claims of nlleged mineral value. Among these wero the claims located by Ralph II. Cameron, which hnvo been In lltlgntlou for several years. Twenty-threo Cameron Claims, hnvo been declared Invalid: Gob den Eagle.
