Show were right below where S5S the , San Juan comes in , ( R . 3325 . ) ( Gross-examination Grossexamination Cross-examivation Crossexamivation ) ( R . Vol . 18 , pp . 3325- 3337 ) : The lowest stage on the Colorado and the San ( Juan Xuaii ) Rivers , ( he lie ) believes , is in February , and they ( are tire ) at a very low stage ( in iii ) December , and the water is at the lowest stage during the months of ( Decem Decein- Decein ) ber , January , and ( February Febriuiry- Febriuiry ) . ( R . 3325 . ) On his trip from ( Q-reeiiriver Qreeiiriver 3-reenriver 3reenriver ) , Utah , down the ( Green Greeii ) River to the mouth of the ( San Saii ) Rafael , ( he lie ) had ( no iio ) trouble , but ( from froui ) the mouth of the ( San Sian ) Rafael ( down doNN-ii doNNii ) to the junction , ( he be ) encountered sand bars . He encountered ( more niore ) obstructions of ( that tbat ) character in the stage of the Green River ( from frorn ) the ( Sail Saii ) Rafael down to the mouth than ( he lie ) ( en- en ) countered between the foot of the Cataract Canyon and the ( Utah-Arizona UtahArizona ) state line . ( R . 3326 . ) He would say the difficulties of navigation are very much greater on the Green River from the Sail Rafael down to the mouth of the Green River than ( on o-n on ) the stretch of the river between the foot of Cataract Canyon and the ( Utah-Arizona UtahArizona Utah-Axizona UtahAxizona ) State line as far as ( shallow sballow ) water and sand bars are ( con- con ) cerned , and so far as making progress in boats , and interruptions of travel going downstream . Never ( been becii ) upstream , except on part of it . The water runs so slow it would ( make n-iake niake ) very little difference ( whether whetheT ) you ( went -went went ) up or down on the Green ( River Ri-ver River ) . ( On O-A-i OAi ) the Colorado it would ( make inake ) a lot of difference , |
