A mixture of two rivers (the river Ufa)

In Bashkir, the river Ufa is called Koraidel (the black river). Her so-called due to muddy water.
In 2014 we were rafting down this river, and I saw that it was not muddy all over. I was told about it before, but I was surprised to see it with my own eyes.
Our first stop was once again in the place where an abundant stream of turbid water flows into a clean, large mountain river.

In the photo on the right light water flows; and from below flows muddy water, then mixing, they go south.


It is worth making an explanation: all the Ural rivers are “rain or snow” rivers; most of them come from rainwater in the mountains, but apparently some of these rivers are formed by rain on the fields - this is where this large muddy inflow comes from.

@smyx1212 I too have seen this - when two rivers join together, the two different colours of water - where the River Ganges and River Yemuna in India, join together at Prayag and flow together to the Sea - actually, the locals say the speed of flow of the two waters are also different. But we did not test their theory.
