Out of a bunch of probably
200 which have wintered with
only a little drog calibre, then
have gotten no hay. Thanks that
hay sprouts there
1898-7 this was very small
mobility.
2 years ago the country was
full of elk but feeding
kept thin from loss
They have always come here and
no feeding was done until 2
years ago
March 22
We left Jackson a few minutes after
6 and drove northward with the mail
slip going to Moran.
The road goes northward
up the valley and crosses the
Pine Centre about 10 miles above
Jackson. In the valley is quite a
growth of Cattlewood which are
rather stunted. Beyond we came
open flats for about 5 miles
to Morant P.O.
Beyond here the road descends
very slightly, passes ditch creek
at crosses Antelope Flats at
this descends to Spring Creek
When we stopped for dinner
at Wilson Ranch.
In the afternoon we crossed
Buffalo & Cougar Creeks &
more near the outlet of
Jackson Lake.
