"En Route Home, Thursday March 17\n\nWas up at day break and had breakfast before setting to Field at 8.15. The day is clear and the outs are clearing brilliantly in the snow covered dress. To the north of Field is Rynjers and St. [illegible] hour brilliant it is in the morning sun. All the out are of stratified rocks and of Cambrian and Ordovician age into the Silurian also.\n\nMt Stephen\n\nFarther east and down to the south stands grand, and the strata are lifted in an anticline or in fault relation. To the south are Mt Ogden and Cathedral Mountain, and in front the R.R. turns and rounds. (up to 8.30 A.M.)\n\nDuring the last 12 hours we have come 214 miles and have risen from 1288' to 4075' or a rise of 2787 feet. This is why we are making only about 18 miles per hour. We keep on rising to the station Panora [illegible] Stephen Kicking Horse at 3:33. Here is the continental divide and the boundary between British Columbia and Alberta. The waters for the Pacific and Hudson Bay.\n\nLake Louise station is at 5050 but the hotel further along beside the lake is at 5670'. All is in deep snow and the steam snow plows have been along clearing the track.\n\nThe scenery is very grand.
