cold from the melting snows above and the air became much colder than we were used to in the desert below. We stopped when a large Yellow Haired Porcupine ambled across the road in front of the car and started crossing a large grass patch heading directly toward a grove of Lodgepole Pine. We headed him off with the help of large sticks tied him by one hind leg and kept him captive while we hunted for a camping site, for the road was blocked here by snow making further travel by automobile impossible. We dropped our equipment beside the road, bid good by to Dads who was staying with his mother in Elko, and made ready for a weeks stay in the high country. We tied up the porcupine and set up a temporary camp near the road planning to move to a more secluded situation tomorrow. June 5, 1935 Our big job this morning was to photograph the porcupine, and although we spent more than an hour trying to set the creature in suitable positions for picture taking, we were still not satisfied with the results when we finally let him go. We moved camp to a position about 200 feet upstream in a spot not detectable from the nearby road. At lunch and climbed to the ridge between camp and Mt. Harrison. As the ridge slopes off toward Mt. Harrison, there are a group of wind eroded rocks, rather evenly spaced at about 50 to 100 feet.
