Ten Tales, Well Worth The Read...

Longs Peak is more than a rock, rising up in the midst of the Rockies. It has a history, and Randell documents part of that history in his book by presenting ten stories of special repute. He begins with the story of Old Man Gun, an Arapaho warrior who set an eagle trap on top of Longs Peak using a stuffed coyote. Next he tells the story of how Lamb's Slide got its name. He proceeds from there to the story of how Rocky Mountain Jim wooed Isabella Bird at the place we now call Jim's Grove. There are seven more, all well written. You will enjoy reading them.
