Got up at 7:15 A.M. and am still in California, near Lagelle in the Klamtha Valley at an elevation of about 2700 feet. All of the Emu types are white under a new snow. A little further north it comes down to 3000' above the sea. All is now snow covered and we are in fine conifer forests. At 10 A.M. we are at the summit of Dial, Oregon, at 4100'. The strata are hardly metamorphosed mostly dark blue shales with grey (?) thin bedded sandstones. They lie at low angles, and appear to be Paleogene.

South of Glen Dale we are again climbing the
