 MOUTH OF HAVASU OR CATARACT CRlSE^K AT THE JUNCTION WITH THE) COLORADO 



RIVER AT HIGH WATER 



Note the figure of a man on shore. This picture was taken during the flood stage on 

 the Colorado and shows the water 60 feet higher than in the preceding picture. The walls 

 in the distance are 4,500 feet high ; those in the foreground are over 2,000 feet high. There 

 would have been small chance for escape by climbing up such walls as these if our boats 

 had been lost or injured beyond repair.
