Description	BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY: Tad notes in his diary that on the drive to Hite Ferry on July 4th, 1952, they encountered 'much traffic on the Hite-Blanding road-- uranium prospectors working in the Shinarump.' Finally, however, they arrived at the ferry, met the rest of their party, and 'pushed off about 2PM.' In addition to the three regular boats, this trip also included one Folbot kayak, in which several of the boatmen and passengers took turns. 'Folboting is fun--but hard work in turbulent water or wind,' writes Nichols. Their hike to Rainbow Bridge this year included 2 other boating parties; Tad records that he was number 7985 in the register.
