Driving logs downriver was hard, hazardous work, and the days were long and tiring. Dynamiting when necessary and breaking up log jams in the river were jobs fraught with risk.

the wells and the other wonderful features of this wonderful gorge. The wells, of which there are dozens are holes big and little, worn in the solid rock presumably by stones turned and twisted by the current in the days when the gorge was in process of erosion.The largest of these wells is 16 feet in diameter and 30 feet deep. At freshet time the rocks in which these wells are located are covered by a surging, swirling mass of water. Everywhere the banks are steep, and in some places almost perpendicular. Near the falls is the Coffee Mill, a cove into which the current sets many of the logs that come over the falls.

In freshet time, with the river a raging flood, the distance has been paddled in 14 hours and 46 minutes, and rafts have made the run unaided except by the current in a single day. It is figured that the descent of the river from Grand Falls to Fredericton is 298 feet, or an average drop of 2 feet 4 inches per mile-evidence in itself that the water must run pretty rapidly.
