Verso: "Marking the Crossing" Many streams in the West had deposits of quicksand, not necessarily always in the same place. When a camp move involved a river crossing, several men would ride on ahead and test the safest place for crossing marking it with willow poles, usually cut on the site. Tom Lovell
