It is worthy of note, that the Yellowstone Lake itself is at an elevation of 7,780 feet, and that the park contains two mountains each near eleven thousand feet, and three more are each about ten thousand feet, besides twenty- five others which are quite high. Many of these mountains bear personal names : thus 240 FROM FIFTH AVENUE TO ALASKA. Mount Washburn was named after Gen. Wash- burn ; Dunraven, after Lord Dunraven ; Mount Everts, after Mr. Everts, a member of a party under the leadership ...of Gen. Washburn in 1870, formed to explore the Yellowstone River. While near the head of the lake, Mr. Everts be- came lost ; and, suffering untold hardships from hunger and cold, he became insane, and was found wandering near the Mammoth Springs. So early as the expedition of Lewis and Clark across the continent in 1803 or 1804, a trapper named Colter, who accompanied that celebrated exploration, having left the company, was captured by Blackfeet Indians, from whom he escaped. In his wanderings he saw the boiling springs and some of the geysers ; and as early as 18 10 he was in Missouri, relating marvellous tales of lakes burning with brim- stone, of pits of fire, and spouting hot water.
