difficult going. I followed this 1/30
trail on snow shoes, but I was fully
satisfied with the exercise by the
time I had gone a half mile and back.
Measured snow out in front as be-
ing 18", 20" and 12" deep - Too light
for comfortable walking even on snow
shoes.
Almiah had a block to this after-
oon and gave an exhibition of
what I suppose was a rather
wild attack of this form of hysteria.
Resembled a case of singing drunk.
She droffed off her karnits but did
not stop any further while in our
house. She went out doors without
her karnits.
Nose says he has never seen so
much snow here before at one
time.
at work all day on my "Foxskin"
report to H.F.O. and beginning of
general drift - First drafts.
11 Nov. Saturday_
C8, N17; c9, N15; 0, N16; c4, N16; 13, N3 max 19°
8a, 8.5°; 12m, 7.2°; 4h, 3.9°; 8h, 2°; 12p, 2.9 min 1.3°
Extremely disagreeable day with clouds
of snow driving before the strong wind.
No walking out for me! Letters.
Writing so many letters to home
folks makes me homesick enough -
gale seems to me to be stronger than
is indicated by the figures given a-
bove - Our individual estimates of
the force of the wind vary greatly and
make us long for our anemometer to be up.
