Description

Railway tracks of the Great Gorge Trip bottom right with train on the tracks ; the rock formation was often referred to as the Sentinel ;

en-CA Reverse reads "A part of the magnificent panorama of scenic wonders along the Great Gorge Route, the Giant Rock standing just between the rushing torrent of water and the trolley road, almost overhanging the latter, is one of the most interesting sights on this trip. Hurled there by some upheaval of nature or chiseled out of a large body by the power of the water. It stands a lone sentinel by the steel trail for modern man" ;
