Album caption and index card: This photograph was taken form the left bank 313.6 kilometers below Lees Ferry. A Quaternary basalt flow is seen at river level on the right. The canyon of the Colorado River is broad enough here so that the scouring action of flood waters is dampened and some perennial plants became established in the alluvium near the river. A flood, 6 days earlier, overtook the U.S. Geological Survey crew at Lava Falls, 25.1 kilometers upstream from here and the river stage increased by 6.7 meters. The signs of recent wave action high on the beach in this photograph probably stem from the same flood. Several plants such as the tree (Fremont cottonwood or willow) at right midground, desert broom (left...

Album caption and index card: Because the old camera station is now overgrown by saltcedar and desert broom, this photograph was taken from a slightly different location than in 1923. The tree at left is Goodding willow and is the same plant as in the earlier view (photo no. 73). Bermuda grass now grows on the beach near the tree. The flood-line community at the mouth of Two Hundred and Ninemile Canyon comprises western honey mesquite and catclaw. Although not evident in the photograph, close field inspecdtion revealed that both species, trimmed through grazing by burros, are infested by mistletoe. Grand Canyon National Park. Mohave County, Arizona. 1974. Appears as Figure 62A (photographs transposed in publication)...

Album caption and index card: Diamond Creek enters the Colorado River 363.2 kilometers below Lees Ferry and is the first place in that distance where vehicles can reach the river. The mouth of Diamond Creek was visited by Ives and his party in 1858 and was the terminus of the Wheeler Expedition in 1871. The Diamond Creek Hotel was in operation here for sightseers from 1884 to 1889 before scenic areas farther east were developed. In this upstream view, the only plant at the river's edge is a large tree visible on the opposite bank in a protected area below a bar. Large plants on the fan at the mouth of Diamond Creek (right midground) are probably mesquites. On the uppermost sandy terrace of the fan a dense growth...

Album caption and index card: The U.S. Geological Survey team has moored its boats near a large rock at a sand bar on the right bank, 368.0 kilometers below Lees Ferry. Although no flood-line community is found on the steep walls of the Lower Granite Gorge, the flood line is visible because of stains on the rocks of the talus slopes. No plants are found below that line, and above it are seen widely scattered desert shrubs. (Altitude 395 meters). Grand Canyon National Park. Mohave County, Arizona. October 7, 1923. (Photo no. 690 by E.C. LaRue). Portion published as Figure 70A in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional Paper 1132. 1980.
