Another valley supplies water for some alfalfa fields belonging to the ranch at Cane spring. This spring itself seems to rise where the long wash slope from the mountains on the north comes against the rock that descends from the spurs on the south. Every drop of water available in the growing season is used. Storage reservoirs in the mountains would increase the summer supply, but such reservoirs would be so soon filled with waste — should they indeed escape destruction by a cloud-burst torrent — that the cost of their construction would, it is to be feared, never be repaid. The Mountain Face. — The study of mountain morphology is so little advanced that one encounters difficulty both as to method and terms in. Figure 6. Diagram showing notches in the front of a young tilted block; some of the front edge of the block still remains. attempting to present a definite account of mountain forms. It is evident, however, that the face of a range, carved on the fault scarp of its tilted or lifted block, should present certain features characteristic of such an origin, and that these features should be deduced as carefully as any others in the mental construction of the type example, so that their oc- currence or absence in actual ranges may be determined. In no other way can it be ascertained whether the face of the range as well as its.
