July 4. Rained all night
& all day - dark & cold,
but little wind, at least
compared to first few days
here. Stayed home &
sorted & recorded specimens
collected during last 2
days, and Dorothy put
them in newspapers.
Some 100 collections and
nearly as many species-
really more if admixtures
are counted. Although we
have no coal, found
that range will heat
remarkably well for
long enough to warm the
warming with newspapers,
cardboard, etc. At 4:00
heavy snow began &
everything white by 7:00.
