Show 441 to Moab but only as far as well No. 2, where it was loaded on the big boat and taken on up. The name difficulties were encountered on the on this trip as were encountered on the other trip. After reaching Moab the boats were taken to Greenriver, Utah, by truck. R 1135- 1137 " Q. Why didn't you go on down the Colorado River and then up the Green to Greenriver? A. Why, the hard labor of getting up there is something fierce; I wouldn't want to undertake it with a pair of oars." R. 1138 He can not tell how long it would take to make the trip from Moab to Greenriver city by boat but in his best judgment it would take about a month's times. By trick it takes not over eight hour's time. He has never been over that section of the country by boat between Moab and Greenriver. He has been from Greenriver to Moab, of Course, by boat. Between Moab and Greenriver there is a ranch house somewhere on the road but he doesn't remember just where it is. The land in the surrounding country is mostly bad land, out considerably with deep washes. The land does not lock like farm land to him. R. 1138- 1139 |
