Just one lookTake one look -There are wonders hereSights you can’t believe. So incredible you’d swear your eyes arePlaying tricks on you.One look This way, waterfalls.Over there, mountains, ancient rocks, They wrap around The Snake like primordial guardians.One lookIs all it takes to want to stay no matter whatJust to see White-shagged mountain goats, trumpet-eared bighorn sheep.It only takes one look to fall in love.
