promise of being back in 4
hours. went down to lake just
N of camp or runway - eventually
went around lake. Wind extremely
wild when working into it, but-
bearable when at back - we
should have brought our parkas.
Lake shore quite rich - wet for
vegetation, but tundra itself very
dry in spite of mist, consisting
of a dry dusty silt in clods.
Got Sphagnum vacuolosum & a
peculiar Sphagnum moss -
[illegible], but not typical ? - in
quantity, and enough Cinnidin
latifolium for exsiccata. Back to
Camp at 6:00 with large plastic
bag & 2 smaller ones full, for
Sorting later. Davison had
taken Dorothy & pilots on tour
of village, down on seashore
