August 6, 1906, Monday
Threatening and showery all day. Several heavy
showers in the P. M. Worked all day taking care
of plants collected. In the P. M. stayed in camp
on account of the rain. Collected plants to
burn for ash analysis and for soil samples
about the alpine meadowin which camp is located.
Trout, wheat, maple syrup and apple sauce for
breakfast, and about the same for dinner.
August 7, 1906, Tuesday
Clear in the A. M. Cloudy in the P. M. Rainy
in the evening. Had breakfast of trout, etc.,
and about 8.30 Cote', Joe, Fernald, and I
started down to Triangular Pond and across to
Granite Block Pond, up to Second Peak where I
took a panorama. Cote' and I then went across
to Third Peak while Joe and Fernald worked
around Pond #101 (Southeast of Third Peak). Took
panorama from Third Peak. Lunched near Pond# 101
with Joe and Fernald. On the way from Second
to Third Peak I went along edge of barrens above
Pond # 201 and found Dryas Integrifolia and several
other interesting things. After lunch we all
went back to this place and worked the barrens
above Pond #201 and also to some extent the upper
slope of the next ravine north of #201. Found
a good many interesting plants. Came home via
Second Peak and across by Granite Block Pond and
Triangular Pond. Got back to camp about 7.00
and found Roy and Perry back from the Forks.
