Show Record hours. I think Exhibit 121 is a picture of the Undine which was propelled by a stern wheel. L. L. Taylor testified on recross examination as follows: 2889 I wouldn't say that I saw rafts of lumber four times. I saw them just a few times and can't remember. I don't think it is over four times. During the years that I saw this rafting, 2890 Moab obtained its lumber from the Lasal mountains. I think there was some hauling of lumber, but I do not remember how many times I have seen lumber hauled overland into Moab, my recollection on that being similar as my recollection as to rafts. In giving my answer as to general use, I had in mind the common knowledge with respect to the rafting of that lumber. L. L. Taylor testified on redirect examination as follows: 2891 I have many times been over the San Juan country along the road; I have been as far south as Bluff and east to the Colorado state line in San Juan County, and I think I have been in every section of Grand County that is accessible. I have not been more than two or three miles west of Bluff. Therefore my statement regarding the possibilities of the southeast section of the state " would be confined to the territory east of Moab and east of Bluff, Monticello, and so on." The section spoken of as 2892 Spanish Valley on the pleading map is Moab Valley. Occasionally Court House Wash and Mill Creek discharge large quantities of water and sand into the river below the Moab landing. The pleading map is incorrect in showing Court House Wash as entering the Colorado River opposite the mouth of Castle Creek. It flows into the Colorado River about a hundred yards below the Moab Garage 2893 boat Landing. I have no personal knowledge as to the irrigable capacity of lands in San Juan County adjoining the Colorado or Green(?) Rivers, my statements as to potential capacity being confined to the sections I have seen. I have seen many hundreds of miles of that section of Utah. 386 |
