I find it so incredible, considering the topography and the fact that 120 years ago all you had was horse, rope and pulleys.
This is a look at the hard to reach ledges in the canyon.
This poor guy, William Henry Leigh, was out hunting by himself in 1884 and apparently fell to his death. The heroic part for me was that the men from the local area looked all week for Leigh and finally found him dead....he was then shipped all the way back to Scotland for burial. The locals then made the effort of putting a plaque on the mountain for him...astonishing
