the Great Colorado of the West, derived from this remarkable 
voyage. 
1. The actual location of the mouth of the San Juan forty 
niles below Green River junction, and its entrance by a 
eafion continuous with that of the Colorado, above and 
below the point of junction. 
2. From the mouth of the San Juan to the Colorado

eurrent allowing four miles per hour for fifteen hours or 
sixty miles per day, would give an estimated distance of 180 
miles, including the most inaccessible portion of the cafion.
