| dc.description.abstract | "Standing alone in Central Washington and midway between the settlements of Walla Walla on the South and Colville on the north was the little settlement of Yakima City. It was in an open valley of great fertility and was the center of trade for a vast stock region. Kittitas valley, in which the town of Ellensburgh is now situated, was included in this Yakima region, but as it was situated far up in the mountains and can only be reached by traveling over great mountains or up tortuous canyon of the Yakima, and as the climate was cold, windy and a vicious one, it was slow to attract settlers. Frozen snows often lingered late in the spring and bitter winds howled in dismal blizzards while the Yakima valley proper was clad in flowers." | en_US |
