The Last of the Plainsmen The slopes between these points of cliff were covered with a deep growth of pinyon, and in these places descent would be easy. The Last of the Plainsmen Then there was a steady ascent, up and up all the time, though not steep, until another level, green with cedar and pinyon, was reached. The Rainbow Trail I took long strides and jumps, and slid over rocks, and swung on pinyon branches, and covered distance like a rolling stone. The Last of the Plainsmen Against the green pinyons Frank's white horse stood out conspicuously, and near him browsed the mounts of Jim and Wallace. The Last of the Plainsmen A large pinyon, with a dead top, suggested a good outlook, so I climbed it, and saw I could sweep a large section of the slope. The Last of the Plainsmen At another spot, which Sounder climbed, he lassoed a pinyon above, and walked up with his feet slipping from under him at every step. The Last of the Plainsmen They entered the pinyon grove and passed the cabin where the tragedy had been enacted. The Rainbow Trail I caught Wallace at the summit, and we raced together out upon another flat of pinyon. The Last of the Plainsmen I came suddenly upon our leader, leading his horse through the scrub pinyon on the edge of the canyon, and I knew at once something had happened, for he was closely scrutinizing the ground. The Last of the Plainsmen As our mounts crashed back with stiff forelegs and haunches, Wallace and I leaped off and darted into the clump of pinyons, whence issued a hair-raising medley of yells and barks.
