Q Do you run your cattle, and have you for years past been running your cattle down in the section west of Bluff? A In the winter, yes sir. Q From there on down the San Juan clear to the Colorado? A No sir. Q How far west did you run your cattle? A I would judge from about ten miles west of Mexican Hat. Q You have never had any occasion to use any boats or to be on the San Juan river except to cross after cattle, have you? A That is all. Q Have you crossed the San Juan at various points? A I have. Q Do you recall one year when the San Juan went dry for a time? A Yes sir, I remember the year it went dry. Q About how long was it dry? A Well, I think about anywhere from ten days to two weeks.
