As indicated by the next photo, above the reservoir, the valley flattened out a bit, but the road in the early years did not improve. It was still one-lane.

Above the Reservoir the grades and curves lessened--for a while. The road remained a single lane without guard rails or parapets.

View of Cathedral Rocks.

As noted by Dr. Bacmeister (previous page) there were variously rock formations named after various things and persons which in one's imagination there was a resemblance. These included the "Kaiser's Face," the "Laughing Pig," the Palisades, the "Pulpit," Sentinal Rock, "Henry Ford," tne most impressive of all the "Holy City."

The Holy City was apparently inspired by a hymn that was popular in the early 1900's, the "Holy City" composed by Michael Maybrick with lyrics by Frederick Weatherly. See Revelation 21.
