76 Directly east from the roof the lower third is the brilliantly red Supai. Then it is all light gullmint all the way up to the TIP of Mogollon Plateau. Of this 1/3 by far the greater half is of the Coconino and what there may be of the Supai. There is a hack line (may be a spurt with tints) and all above it is lightly tinted. On top of the Plateau is the oxide spread lava and here and there are volcanic mass. In the north is Bill Williams and another mass immediately south. Then the grand San Francisco Drift that are snow covered. Directly east of the hotel is a long many flat-topped mass. South east begin to appear the high parts of the faulted zone and in the far south east are the tips of Decora Apache and Mogot gold with the Tonto Boam and Roosevelt Lake in between. The "Rim" and outlying parts go five north to south about 1/3 the mile. The red Supai has clearly an offset bench, separating a lower mass from an upper one. But both are equally red. The upper mass is about 1/3 and the lower 2/3 of the white red streak.
