Leach entered the rapids at 3 57 and went through them in three minutes, riding the tremendous waves smoothly. The great waves caught the barrel and hurled It clear of the water, but it righted Itself nicely and went on to the whirlpool without mishap. Five times the barrel circled the whirlpool, keeping to the outer edge, away from the vortices.

At the south end of the pool it was caught In an in-shore eddy and floated in --close enough to be caught with a pole at 5:05. The only one of the barrel navigator to be killed in a rlmllar trip was Maud 'N'lllard. who suffocated In her barrel on September 7. 1S01. She was In the whirlpool for five hours.
