Woke early with a chorous of bird songs outside our tent & for the first time saw plainly the beautiful woods around us.  Had a good breakfast in the big Pavillion dining room & then went out on Scenic Point for some photographs.  Could look down over the wide valley to the west with its great, bgare, shining playa & across to the blue range of mts. west of it.  We are on the very top of the Sacremento Mts. & the top is flat.  Cloudcroft is 9130 feet above sea level.
