94 10 miles Sunday Sept 18. To Belly Creek I started ahead of the outfit to hunt and they caught me at Belly creek where I waited. We crossed and camped on the east bank. The trail followed the pine benches for the most part and struck the river only once. It passed over a several very high cut banks, one of which I saw many holes. I found some The pine valley has been burned out and there are many fell chimneys and granny firestone which formerly covered the soil that are now far from it. See recent signs of bearers. Eldercorns common along the crest of its high banks Wildlaves not ripe and rather common. 95 15 miles below Monday Sept 19. We made a fairly early start and travelled steadily all day passing two or three small brooks first before sunset we came close to the river for the first time all day and cutting across a bend a mile or more we camped where the trail again struck the river. The trail passed through pine woods most of the way and usually along the crest high sandy banks steadily. After noon we entered a fresh burn made early in the summer and continued it in most of the afternoon. It has covered much of the valley for many miles on both sides and is still smoldering in a couple of places across. The valley bared thirty 3 km, one or other Som only old ground which indicates that the young or egg were destroyed by this fire Wind Calm. Clear in evening
