Dirt Glacier
Friday July 6 To Dirt Glacier
We made an early start and had
Little trouble with the zapme. We reached
The Boundary about 9.30 Stopped about
an hour and then went on, about
1/2 miles from the Boundary is the
Big Glacier. Its face is close to it
and at least 700 meters long
and extends back in a narrow
valley a long distance how far
I cannot see as it turns ruled
by fog. The mountains are higher
and with snow.
Saturday July 9 To Barley Cache Glacier
Rained all night and we made an early
start - still in rain. Forward from it cleared
somewhat. At our noon camp made
a small collection of plants. Shortly
above we entered a stretch of steeply
sloped islands. Saw maple here
and many blue folioed fir! - The
other trees the same. The current-
was very strong all day. Found being
we passed the so called "Barley Cache" falls
Elevating a very muddy one on the right.
We camped rather late on the right.
