The Crystal Mountain
According to the latest reports, there is a crystal mountain residing somewhere in
Wyoming. You can't see nothing of it, it being clear straight through. But folks
hereabouts reckon its about three miles around at the base, on account of all the
bones of birds which killed themselves crashing into the danged thing.
I know of one lad who was showing off for his girl. He was doing wheelies on his
bike when he crashed right into the side of the crystal mountain and knocked
himself cold. I hear his lassie married another man who was smart enough to
avoided mountains, visible or invisible.
That danged crystal mountain is always messing up the huntin' in these parts. A
friend of mine got a peach of a sight on a ten-point deer once, right in rifle
range. But when he fired, his bullet didn't come anywhere near the dad-blame
creature. What's more, the deer didn't even flinch; jest kept on grazin'. It took
three or four shots before my buddy realized that that pesky crystal mountain was
acting like one of them telescopes and had reflected the image of a deer from the
other side of the forest!
