Since the last edition of Nature News Notes the Naturalist has had the good fortune of spending ten great days with a small party which completely encircled the Mountain, and in addition made a side trip into the little developed and infrequently visited northern section of the Park in the region of the Natural Bridge.

THE WONDERLAND TRAIL

For a hundred miles, thru dense coniferous forests, across beautiful flower-filled Alpine meadows, along wind-swept ridges above the last battle-scarred trees of timberline, across rivers of moving ice, down steep talis slopes, skirting perpendicular basaltic cliffs, fording rushing mountain torrents and crossing deep canyons on slender bridges, with the great ice crowned monarch of the Northwest towering ever above, the Wonderland Trail makes its way around the base of the old Volcano.
