Joaquin Miller thus describes a storm in the Canyon which he witnessed: "The battles of the elements roared far below us and all the time, as far as the eye could reach, the white clouds curled, drifted, drooped, died, then rose again. The thunder at intervals was fearfully impressive. We felt at one time that the temples, towers and battlements of red which burst here and there among the thunder clouds, must be crumbled into dust. The lighnting continually wrote the autograph of God on and through the clouds at our feet, but when the clouds would part, all would be as before."
