Cade 1954 General Account 30 June Note: the account of the next five and 1/2 days is reconstructed from notes taken under the assumption that we had been landed on the Colwill, approx. 10 mi. above the mouth of the Otei lat. Subsequently it proved that we had in fact been landed on the upper Olonmogarik Killek, and by re-tracing our steps we are able to fix the spot as a small lake c. 5 miles up the Killek from its confluence with Easter Creek. How a bush pilot could fly this trip up and back to Otei twice without discovering the error is beyond me. Andy, the Wien pilot at Bettles, came in to Otei about 12.30 to take us up-river. I went up on the first haul to establish the landing point. On the way we saw half a dozen moose and one grizzly bear in the river bottom. Flew close by several falcon bluffs but did not see any birds. We landed on a small lake between the Otei River and Easter Creek, about one mile from the former and c. 5 miles above the mouth of the latter. On the second trip Andy brought up Ben Byeller, Hal Webster and the rest of the gear. The remainder of the day was spent packing the stuff over to the river. We have about 700 lbs of duffle etc. We were finally established in a camp across the river on a gravel bar around 2000.
