All around were evidences of former occupation by the Puebloans, and I became greatly interested in examining the locality.

At length, we were ordered across the Kaibab to the vicinity of Kanab, and I shall never fail to see distinctly the wonderful view from the summit we had of the bewildering cliff-land leading away northward to the Pink Cliffs.

The lines of cliffs rose up like some giant stairway, while to the south-eastward the apparently level plain was separated by the dark line of Marble Canyon.

On top of the plateau, which was covered with a fine growth of tall pines, we came about camping time to a shallow, open valley, where we decided to stay for the night.

As it was on the top of the mountain Bishop recorded it in his notes as Summit Valley, and so it ever afterward remained.
