Dick in the Desert - James Otis - Bog

1893. The story begins: Between Fox Peak and Smoke Creek Desert, on the western edge of the State of Nevada, is a beautiful valley, carpeted with bunch grass, which looks particularly bright and green to the venturesome traveler who has just crossed either of the two deserts lying toward the east. Buffalo Meadows the Indians named it, because of the vast herds of American bison found there before the white men hunted simply for the sport of killing; but those who halt at the last watercourse prior to crossing the wide stretches of sand on the journey east, speak of it as Comfort Hollow.
