A mist-shrouded mountain with deep intersecting ravines that form a snowy cross, with wooded slopes and a plunging creek in the foreground.
There is a mountain in the distant West
That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
Displays a cross of snow upon its side. - A Cross of Snow, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Located in the Holy Cross Wilderness, the cross can be seen only two or three months of the year and only from certain places. Though the mountain is real, Moran added the creek to improve his picture. (1875)
