In  some  of  the  canyons  the  water  rose  to
an  enormous  height  owing  to  the  naiTow  chan-
nel in  which  it  was  confined.  The  crookedness
of  the  river  makes  its  total  length  about  800
miles.  The  men  hunted  and  trapped  on  the  way
but  met  only  with  very  moderate  success.  They
claim  to  be  the  first  who  ever  made  the  trip  in
a boat  the  whole  length  of  the  river.
