Whiskey Gulch

Whiskey Gulch
  just to the left
Dry Bones Valley
  straight ahead

Many a man's thought
  to pause at that Gulch
Nary a one's 
  returned alive

Dry Bones Valley
  straight ahead
still untrodden
  by those dead

For many men pause
  at Whiskey Gulch
Nary a one's
  returned alive

This makes me think of Death Valley, in California - it is quite an interesting tourist attraction!

I think 'Whiskey Gulch' is just over yonder from Death Valley, actually. ~ Old Cowhand
