THE HUNTERS AND THE VANISHED CITY
THREE HUNTERS WERE LOST IN A SUDDEN SNOW STORM IN COLORADO WHEN
THEY CAME UPON SEVERAL CROSSES IN THE SNOW. THEY WERE TIRED SO
THEY TIED THEIR HORSES TO THE CROSSES, WHICH THEY BELIEVED TO BE
GRAVES, AND WENT TO SLEEP IN THEIR TENT. THEY SLEPT FOR FOUR OR
FIVE DAYS AND WHEN THEY AWOKE THEY FOUND THEMSELVES IN THE MIDDLE
OF A TOWN. THEY LOOKED UP AND FOUND THEIR HORSES HANGING AT THE
TOP OF A CHURCH. THE STORM HAD BEEN SO BAD THAT IT HAD COMPLETELY
COVERED THE CITY, BUT HAD MELTED WHILE THEY SLEPT.
