nature'! most unllqus phenomena baa recently been made accessible to tho public aiuss mountain which can easily be reached by way of the Pacific highway from Bedding to Weed then off tho main highway to Mt Herron where tho new Modoo National Forest road begins This wonder of Blaklyou county that has interested scientists thruout the nation is located In the heart of the lava beds neat ths Modoo county line Because of Its heretofore Inaccessibility Glam mountain has not been viewed by many people outside of the locality In which It towers like a great black giant over many buttes of lava In thia wonderland of historic interest It was in this locality that the famous Indian war of 1878 was fought and not far distant Is tha point where Cuptnln Jack and his bond of braves surrendered Is tha book name for the substance composing the queer formation It is found in various parts of the world where voluinlc activity has occurred It Is declared Its presence In masses Is rare so Glass mountain bears distinction uh regards quantity Was Queer Job Large portions of Glass mountain apparently were rout'd or up-heaved In a single day by volcanic action At any rate It looka that way It appears as If soma monstrous power had been at work and that the job wus abandoned in hurry Just at a time when the stuff was reudy to ba up" Some one suggested that this is one of the freaks" Glass mountain la nothing more than a rounded mass of rock flow some two miles long and a half mile across Ths surface Is to jagged and Irregular however that ono de Clares the area mach greater when he traverses It The material Is of a distinctly glassy texture: most of It Is scoria tsous or pumice like and some of It appears Ilk purs glass transparent In many places This latter Is some times found In layers two or thr feet thick Ths surface of Olaas mountain la thrown up Into numerous rlilge by which one may observe the aC' tlvltles that formed it Sometimes theno ridges cracked and settled apart while still in the plastic stage like so much thick tar revealing In detail the lines of flow and the reclln of movement Many Strange Forms Its Irregularities are declared unequal presence of stejm In the different portions of the flow That there wus much steam pressure Indicated by the pumice or scoria These rock forms nra found where the molten muss was purfed up ex ploded like pop corn by the super heated moisture within rumlce mountain so called from Its formation of brokeu whits pumice stoe lies Just across the way from Glass mountain It offers In both color and surface formation a strange and Interesting contrast to the In ter The two mountains were form ed duing different geological age Pumice mountain being much the aider those who have studied the district declare Great Yotcaiilv Area The whole region lying about Gluaa and Dundee mountains for miles in every direction Is of vot canla origin It seems that the earth's surface has been imrtieulnrly weak or thin or that the forces the Interior whlrh bavi been In turbulent condition -vr alee the or Igln of the earthy have limn ret lively great with the result that they have from time to time forced openings up thru tho crust and pour ed out surplus energy In the form of molten rack Disturbances of this nitura appenr to havs occurred up to the recent limes Some of tlm luva beds are so recent that they remind one of lieds of sing found about smelter There has not been time enough for erosion to net In or soli to form consequently no vegetable life has found a foothold there This seeilnn of Slsklyiu end Alo due -counties
