The A-muc-ha-ba I had lost a good many horses and some of those remaining were not able to carry anything. I got the Indians to assist me in moving down to where there was several lodges. The Indians are quite a different nation from the Pa utch (Piute). They call themselves A-muc-ha-ba's and appeared quite friendly bringing me corn beans dried pumpkins &c which I paid them for in beads, rings, vermillion &c. At this place there is considerable timber on the river and the soil might admit of making small farms. There was but 3 or 4 horses among them but I did not succeed in purchasing them. Very little beaver sign on the river. index - back/ next |
Notes: A-muc-ha-ba, or Aha Macav : Mohave Indians. From the description of the Colorado River and the distances described in the following, the party may be somewhere in the vicinity of the lower/southern end of Black Canyon between what is now Willow Beach and Cottonwood Cove. The Colorado at this point would be too deep and the current too swift to support beaver. |
