trigging-stone

Updated: April 30, 2025

Judging by the time it had taken the Navajos to bore a tunnel under their log and undermine the first trigging-stone, we estimated that two more hours must pass before the four obstructions we had placed in their way could be removed, unless they took some more speedy method. It was quite nine miles to camp, and the dog could easily reach it in about an hour.
