Description	CONTENT: These images depict many of the six boatmen and twenty passengers who left Mexican Hat on June 11, 1954 for a trip through Glen Canyon. Their six boats landed at Lees Ferry at the end of the trip, June 16, 1954. BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY: Katie Lee gave a concert in Blanding, Utah the night before this trip, and continued entertaining the group with guitar and songs at various sites throughout Glen Canyon. 1954 was a low-water year--only 11,000 CFS, whereas the previous year it had been 70,000 CFS and the year before that at 120,000 CFS. Boatmen fought sandbars, deep mud, and rocks.
