"And now, with full breath and anxious heart, repressed excitement and keen zest,--we anxiously scan the scenes from car windows or platforms, and prepare for one grand, rushing descent into the glories of Echo Canon. The writer will never forget the feelings of overwhelming wonder and awe, as with the seal of admiration in both eye and lips, the ride through this famous canon was enjoyed. Rocks beside which all eastern scenes were pigmies, rose up in astounding abruptness and massiveness--colossal old Titans of majestic dimensions, and sublimely soaring summits, and perpendicular sides,--succeeded each other for miles, and the little company of spectators, seemed but an insignificant portion of the handiwork of the Almighty."

                                Henry T. Williams 1876
