"About one mile east of the Summit one of the finest views on the road will be had. The line passes at a great elevation along the face of one of the Summit peaks, and the view into the deep canyons below and across Donner Lake, … is sublimely magnificent. … It, is no exaggeration to say that the scenery all through the canyon is one continuous glorious masterpiece of painting. At the foot of the canyon the Truckee River winds its musical -way eastward. On each side of it in many places almost perpendicular peaks rise to the hight [sic] of from 1,000 to 1,500 feet above the river's bed, and are all very thickly covered with timber, this last being largely due to the fact that until the railroad force came along, man, the vandal, had seldom disturbed this out of the way spot of loneliness and beauty."
Sacramento Union April 22, 1867
