Typed description:
"Crozier Canyon is but one of the many picturesque gorges, out in Arizona, penetrated by Santa Fe rails, en route to California. It is several miles long and lies between Peach Springs and Hackberry stations. In this canyon is a U.S. Government Indian school, where the Hualapai and Havasupai Indians are made over into educated citizens. The scenery here is typical of western Arizona — bare red rock, sand and cactus, with sparse vegetation; the coloring is beautiful."
