A MIRAGE ON THE ARIZONA DESERT

Fred Harvey
In the deserts of Arizona and California the
mirage is often seen, and in some locations it is
visible nearly every day of the year.
Broad lakes, surrounded by fields of green,
herds of cattle, houses, and tree-bordered streams
frequently appear not far distant amid the sands,
and many a prospector or adventurer has been
misled by the apparent cases, only at last to find
that the spreading trees and the sparkling water
evade him, the valley that looked so green is as
dry and barren as the trail he left, and that he
has been in pursuit of a mirage.
