Monday Oct.31. To Sawridge. We started soon after daylight and travelled along the lakes, when The road led over a rough Bouldery stretch for several miles. Soon after we left on camp, it started to snow and it fell steadily for several hours. Around noon we went through long stretches of wet meadows and in the early afternoon reached Mud Creek. Where we we had to carry our baggage across a foot bridge and then swim the horses and drag the wagon through the stream. Then we went on and crossed another smaller mud creek, and a couple of miles beyond reached Sawridge which was on the farther side of the river. We took our stuff across in a small dugout. The N.Bay store was in charge of Mooney. We slept in an unfinished house. Tuesday Nov 1. To Norris Landing We had made partial arrangements to go to Norris Landing by Steam but a York boat bound for the place came over the lake and we embarked on her. The river was very winding with a slow current and lots grassy or miller-cornered banks. We saw little of interest along the river and reached Norris Landing about 8 o'clock and camped in a house. Made arrangements to arrive at Norris Landing in the morning along with 3 men who came down on the York boat J.B. Square Briggs, Arthur Golden, Percy J. Square Briggs
