Over the Ridge It this vicinity there are some groves of Cottonwood and in places Sugar Cane and grass. On the following day after making the indians some presents I moved on keeping a right hand fork my course nearly S W passing out at the head of this creek and over a ridge I entered a ravine running S W I proceeded down it nearly to where it entered some high hills which were apparently covered with pine. At this place I encamped. In the course of the days I passed hills covered with a scattering growth of Bastard Cedar and bushy Oak. Some antelopes were seen in the course of the day and the tracks of Bear and Black tailed Deer. index - back/ next |
Notes: Following the forks of the Mojave River upstream to the right, Deep Creek is passed at southeast Hesperia, the Miller Creek (which is now under Silverwood Lake) is found several miles to the left. If he followed Miller Creek, the next fork to the right is Cleghorn creek which leads up to a saddle, but may have been too steep to descend. More likely, his party followed Summit Valley creek to the saddle and descended into the Cajon Pass south of Cajon Summit. Cajon Pass |
