There wasn't the right kind of wood there. There were no canoes made up and down the river for 50 miles at least south off Priest Rapids, maybe 70 miles. They were made up near Vantage, above Vantage 10 miles, maybe more. It was where Yo-Youni died (frozen on elk hunt) They were made of fir logs I guess it is called. The log was chipped out a little and three fires were built and they were watched carefully so they couldn't burn out the side. Then it was chipped out again and more fires were burned. When the canoe was nearly finished the Indians hitched a horse on the log and pulled it down the side of the mountain and finished building it at the side of the river and then it was floated downstream."NO KNOWN COPYRIGHT The organization that has made the Item available reasonably believes that the Item is not restricted by copyright or related rights, but a conclusive determination could not be made.
