Show Prommel- D 993 Q Are there any people living in there? A During the time we did that survey work we had one areoplane flying over us; they were scouting down the river. Word had leaked out that we were working down the river; they were scouting down the river, and finally came in from Monticello to get ahead of us on the southern end of this work down the river. Outside of that party, our party saw, during two months and a half down river, tow cowboys, that was all. BY THE SPECIAL MARTER: Q If you know, where was the country that the areoplane could land in? A I beg your pardon? Q I say, if you know, where was the country that an areoplane could land in? A It must have been somewhere near Monticello.

I am not positive whether they landed near Monticello, but they came in from Monticello, I believe, down Indian creek and Lockhart canyon. They came across on foot or horseback from Monticello. Q Did you also go in at other times -- have you been in there since? A I made a trip on a boat in 1926, in the early part of 1926. I did considerable work later on, in 1926, on the Green river 2963 |
