Show downstream , keeping very ( S3C '128C 128C ) close to the vegetation , ( sometimes soniethiles ) they could reach it with the oars , because ( they -they they ) knew that was the only channel for good swift t ( 'Water Water ) , and then half a mile ahead they ( would -would would ) see it ( turned 'turned turned ) to the other side of the river , and their only difficulty was in finding the channel ; they connected one loop with the other , and there is every evidence that those channels fill up with silt , and the water caused by driftwood or rocks , occasional rocks or something , would be ( dammed damined ) up or stopped , and it would change its channel over to another place . Water always does that . It is their own knowledge and supposition that ( the -the the ) channel between these bends is continually ( changing cliancring ) ; it fills up with its own silt . ( Major Alajor ) Powell called those rapids in Cataract Canyon cataracts because they were big , violent water , lots of rock , and he would run one boat through a rapid , tie the others up at the head of the ( rapid Tapid ) , get down into quiet water below the ( whirl- whirl ) pools , where he could make a ( landing landiug ) , and would walk back along the shore and run a second boat through 1 . His brother frequently would be on the shore making motion pictures of the action of the boats in the water and in most cases he would run , ( -a a ) third boat through in the same ( way way- way ) . His brother , if he - ( wasn't wasnt ) busy making a picture , would run ( Ms his ) boat through . His was the same boat he used on the first trip , repaired , and on twelve occasions he helped him with one of his boats , usually this light boat he speaks of . |
