From Up and Down California by William Brewer
William H. Brewer |
Brewer Creek: We were working back toward high peaks, where we hoped to discover the sources of Kings, Kaweah, and Kern rivers, geographical problems of some considerable interest and importance. We got back as far as we could and camped at an altitude of 9,750 feet, by a rushing stream, but with poor feed. Wood was plenty, dry, from trees broken by avalanches in winter. A beautiful little lake was near us.6 About five miles east lay the high granite cone we hoped to reach—high and sharp, its sides bristling with sharp pinnacles. From Up and Down California by William Brewer, Book 5 Chapter 2
