Natural tunnel, on the Virginia Southwestern Ry. Scott county, is one of the greatest of Virginia's natural wonders. From out of a semi-cylindrical canyon whose perpendicular walls of blue and gray limestone seem to reach to the very skies. Natural Tunnel cleaves its way 900 feet through a mountain to the world beyond: its arches, 75 feet high and 80 feet broad, swallowing up railroad. telegraph poles and a mountain stream, still have space for more.
