Show 73 -- 70-- " It is about 109 miles from the mouth of the Green River; I think it probable that that Mile 109.9 referred to the mileage from the mouth of the river, rather than the miles below Greenriver, Utah." R. 166. The next bar is the so- called Halverson bar and riffle, ( R. 166) " at a point 108 1/ 2 miles above the mouth of the Green River. At that point there was very little change between conditions now and conditions in 1909, the condition of rocks as shown then being the approximate to location where rocks were observed in 1928." R. 167. The next bar is at miles 106 above the mouth of the Green River. " That apparently is a bar which was found since 1900, when the Army engineers' survey was made, as no reference was made to it. The drop at this bar was about 2 1/ 2 feet." R. 167. The next one is the Gimlet bar and riffle, at mile 106 above the mouth of the Green River. This " probably is the riffle and bar to which Mr. Eddy testified this morning, as being a point where there was a right- angle turn in the current and waves; 75 per cent of the flow comes between two islands and goes directly into the bank, a rock tallus bank on the west, and is turned and comes down into the channel. Its character is indicated by its name, it having been known as the Gimlet, and from his testimony I assume that that is it. Conditions were the name in 1909 as they were in 1928, as shown by Plate 22, the statement being made that nearly all the flow cane between the islands, and toward the right bank." R. 167. The next one is the Sunaba bar and riffle, at miles |
