FROM LAMMER FALLS one can get into the mountains in ten minutes at a moderate walking pace, and in ten minutes more one may have a chance to take a shot at deer, at wolf, at bear, at some skulking puma, at a stone-yellow coyote, at lofty elk, or mountain sheep and goats which sometimes may venture down from their preferred region against the sky. That was why Jeremy Crossett brought his son West, and why he picked out Lammer Falls. They were only one easy stage from a railroad, and yet they were in the wilderness.
