SALT EIVEE.
Tho Large it River ia the
Territory.
Who Named It-Where It Bi.ei
' Length and Breadth-Iti Trib
utaries Suit River rises well up towards
the eastern -part of the Territory,
iu the White mountains, its head
waters being the White snd Black
rivers. It has numerous large
branches, cowing in mostly from
the north, draining the country far
to tlie north, including the Ton to
ISiisin, tlie Sierra Ancha, White, San
Francisco, and other mountains. Its
course is west and southwest, and
it unites with the Gila below
Pliicuiz, some thirty miles. This
river was named the "Kio Salido,"
by the early Spanish and Jesnit ex
plorer, on account of its waters be
ing highly impregnated with Bait,
wltich is easily noticed ut low water.
This is caused by a heavy salt for
matiou through which the river
passes
ABOUT ONE HUNDBID MILES ABOVE
rncEXix.
At low water it is a clear, beautiful
stream, having an average width of
two hundred feet for a distance of
one hundred miles above its junc
tion with tho Gila, and a depth of
two feet or more.
The Verde river is one of the
L:r"3t northern branches of the
Suit liver, its upper branches rising
ut tlificn nt points to the cast, north,
nnd northwest from l'rescott. It
becomes a fine river of eighty feet in
width about fifty miles northeast
from Prcscott, and thence runs a
southerly course to its junction with
Salt river near Camp McDowclL
Its whole course is about one hun
dred and fifty miles. The Tonto,
Sipieui-, Cherry, Agua Fna, and
other large creeks, are also tributa
ries of Salt River, coming in from
tho north. The main upper
branches of the Salt Kiver, the
Whit:: and Black rivers, are both
swift running mountain streim?, nnd
rise iu the White luountaius. They
arc well stocked with the real
speckled mountain trout affording
rare sport to the followers and devo
tees of Isaak Walton.
