A It is in a stretch with which you are apparently not concerned, in Colorado. Q In Desolation canyon, what difficulty did you have there? THE SPECIAL MASTER: We are going into a good deal of detail here. This is one hundred and fifty miles above Greenriver. MR. BLACKMAR: Desolation canyon starts in about twenty- eight miles above Greenriver. THE SPECIAL MASTER: He is talking about Jensen, which is very near the northern boundary of Utah.

THE SPECIAL MASTER: He was just speaking of a canyon near Jensen, which is way up on the northern boundary. MR. BLACKMAR: He referred to a place called Hell's Half Mile. I thought some of these other people had called places Hell's Half Mile down to Cataract. I want to get that located. Q How about Desolation canyon?
