In fact, We encountered no difficulties, beyond occasional sandbars, some quicksands along the shore, and the difficulty of getting to the shore many times. owing to the willows, scrub oak, etc. It was in this part of the canyon ( indicating) that we had the sand storm. As the air along the rim of the canyon cools at night, from the desert air, there is created a cross current, which results in a heavy wind that blows just about supper time, and the fine sand gets into everything. It is simply a discomfort, without being a great danger. By Mr. Blackmar: Q What does this photograph, to be marked Exhibit 48, represent.
