On all sides of the pass, however, rugged peaks rise to elevations of from 5,700 to 6,300 feet. Although the geologist finds that this bold topography prevents rapid progress, while the luxuriant vegetation of the western slope at times presents almost impassable obstacles, yet the rock exposures in the higher parts of the range are such as to furnish conclusive evidence as to their character and relations.In the summer of 1895 Snoqualmie pass was visited by a United States Geological Survey . . .
