devil's den sort scary stories

Image
a do this as a theclio too?  At first glance you would have a hard time finding something scary about this scene.  However, if you look closely at the jumbled pile of rocks at the bottom of the cliff and place them within their historical context as an early local tourist attraction, you will have discovered the Devil's Den.  For more on Cathedral Ledge and the Devil's Den see this link  here .  much of the site still exists  however, some of the large rocks have been quarried and carried away and the trees have grown in so you really have to explore to see this  Cathedral Ledge, Asher B. Durand, 1855, Albany (NY) Institute of Art  here .  compare with photo mwm  here . when known as Hart's Ledge.  climbers from North Conway,  see fuji m5 back up by collection  for photos of the label,  email this link to albany, nhhs, etc.  x Thomas Hill  here .  x private collection,  here .  x Champney, auction, incorrectly labeled as Mass,  mutual art  here .  x more info on cole sketch
