Lake of the Woods 251. Thompson Yellowstone June 14, 1932 About 8:30 A.M. we had seen a pair of swans on Swan Lake. The pair at Lake of the Woods flew in from the Swan Lake direction. At 5:15 PM the pair were not seen at Swan Lake as we returned. Perhaps the same pair was seen at both lakes. Continuing on down the trail toward Norris we saw 3 different sizes of bear tracks. One bear must have been a grizzly since the track was so large, and claw marks prominent. The other two were smaller. At a small stream where a new bridge had been built beside the trail, and a 10" log remained from the old bridge, the bear tracks, and 1 coyote track led to the log. Elk's deer tracks were seen all along the trail. The bear tracks followed the trail for about 4 miles, and led to Norris. Several bands of elk were seen in the big open meadows. Perhaps 100 elk were seen on the trip. They would sight us 3/4 of a mile away, even though we were in the edge of the forest. The trail followed an old road. Today was sunny. Thunder showers came up in the afternoon.
