1141 Code CEGE Dangerous Trails Independent Bill and Bob, on horseback, climb Old Tahquiz, the sentinel of San
Jacinto Range. An old Indian guide called Jim joins them, leading them up wonderful trails to great altitudes.
As they are pitching camp, one of the boys discovers tracks of a lioness with her cub, which they decide to capture. Climbing higher, they find the lair. Jim tells them to come back at night for the cub while the lioness is hunting. As they return to camp they look down on the Coachella Desert nine thousand feet below them. At night, by torchlight, they return and capture the cub, which they later tame.
The subject offers views of our Southwest country in all its vastness. A splendid picture for Boy Scouts.

coast of Lower California, where they have many thrilling experiences with Monsters of the Deep.
First they land some very large bass while fishing on the shore, then aboard one of the boats we see them landing quantities of tuna, using barbless hooks. These fish, weighing about 50 pounds, are contrasted with the tuna off Nova Scotia, which run between 1,500 and 2,000 pounds.
Whalers are next seen in action. One monster is harpooned, blown up with compressed air and later stripped of the blubber.
While battling with a leopard shark, one man goes overboard, adding a little excitement to the next scene. Many other monsters are caught, including hammerhead shark, rooster fish, marrow, sting rays, and finally an
