Simla
Up rather late & a leisurely lunch. About 4pm drove
out to an E-W running valley in the Northern range
which Jack thought would be good. See map facing
Very nice little stream w/ medium sized pools & good
forest border. A hill to the E had a trail going
along it giving, esp in the woods part, an excellent
fly way. Set 3 nets on hill - 2, 30' in forest, one
in open grassy area - & 1, 18' over stream.
