On the opposite side of the river a clear little creek came in, and this was named Chandler Creek, Chandler being the maiden name of Steward's wife.

Beaman and Clem selected a position with their photographic outfit and made some photographs of us as we were working the boats through.

None of his photographs of the rapids came out well as the plates were too slow.
Up a gulch on the right we could see a remarkable topographic feature, nothing less than a gigantic aperture, or natural arch, in the cliff.
