In the Barranca of Itzala nature has been very lavish in her imposing andmajestic beauty. The mountains of this State are unusually high and pictur-esque. The Sierras of Pachuca have lost much of their beauty on account ofthe mining camps interspersed, but the canon of the virgin Omitlan affordsbeautiful views.
