We carry our rations over the rocks, and let our boats shoot over the falls, checking and bringing them to land with lines in the eddies below. At three o'clock we are all aboard again. Down the river we are carried by the swift waters at great speed, sheering around a rock now and then with a timely stroke or two of the oars. At one point, the river turns from left to right, in a direction at right angles to the canon, in a long chute, and strikes the right, where its waters are heaped up in g...reat billows, that tumble back in breakers. We glide into the chute before we see the danger, and it is too late to stop. Two or three hard ECHO PARK TO UINTA RIVER 103 strokes are given on the right, and we pause for an instant, expecting to be dashed against the rock. The bow of the boat leaps high on a great wave ; the rebounding waters hurl us back, and the peril is past. The next moment, the other boats are hur- riedly signaled to land on the left. Ac- complishing this, the men walk along the shore, holding the boats near the bank, and let them drift around.
