A landing was easily made and the boats lowered by lines.

Below this the canyon was much wider, and the rapids were not difficult.

By the time the camping hour came, we had put behind seven miles with five rapids and the extra bad one where the boats were lowered.

No whirlpools were encountered, the stage of water not being favourable for them.

As previously noted, every stage of water produces different conditions, so that the navigator on this river can never be certain of what he will find.
