Davis. 1940. July 17. on the lower snowfields below 8,000'; and this area represents probably the most easily accessible Lemur country in the Cascades.

Skinned Sore in a.m. & p.m. Bathed, laundered, etc. Tomorrow we go to Bend to stock up on supplies, etc., & then to the Blue Mts. via Prineville, Ochoco Nat'l Forest, and Baker. July 19. Sibley skinned a gopher which I caught the previous night as it ran near our fire. We then broke camp, & started for Bend. Ran out of gas about 3/4 mi. from camp, due to leaking fuel pump. I set out for Todd Lake (5mi.) & met some fishermen, the wife of whom drove all the way to Elk Lake & brought me gallons of gas. Sat under tree by main road in heavy thunderstorm for half an hour, when as man's wife gave me a lift all the way back to the truck. Also gave me food & tobacco. Reached truck about 3:30. Put in gas, & drove to Bend, reaching there about 6:15 p.m. Country very
