Shing, 1921. "Nine Mile" Mt. N.E. Hazeltin, D.C. 104. a good deal of slightly larger signs around the rocks but none was fresh, and we could not identify it. Also found some sign midway between sheep and rabbit cut in a snow bank. It was surround (deer.) ed by round holes in the snow resembling rabbit tracks but without any general formations. I was scouting around a bunch of sand-taken, when a bird flew up cackling briefly like a pheasant. I got a long wing shot [illegible] and killed it clean. Found it easily, in spite of the thick brush. It was a beautiful color (Platymus probably a Rock Platymus,) with red crest, velvety brown eyes, speckled rich brown back and head mottled with black; outer tail feathers faintly tipped with white, and the center three feather the same as the backs. The wing primaries are pure white with black quills. The lesser-coverts pure white, the medium and greater-coverts the same as the back?, The under-praries from a muddy brown on the dark chin to a lighter brown on the neck, with a very dark speckled breast. The legs and extreme under parts are white with a few brown and black feathers. The legs are feathered to the toes, and the toes are black. The vent is a dirty gray. Inverted coverts are black, brown and white. Also shot two adult Golden Pheon Spanors, and a Pipit. There is very little life Lagopus
