Cack 1957 General Account 5 June Left Barrow at 0900 in an LVT, traveling to the Inaave River with Bill Maher, Bill Boyd, Doc Hanna, Al Brock, Lowell Douglas, and Kenny Tewak as driver. We followed the cat-trail to the Coal Mile on the way down. The weather was foggy for the first couple of hours but cleared before we reached the Inaave. We arrived at the Inaave about 1300 and ate lunch at an Ekinvo Creek-shooting camp. There were half a dozen men there hunting. We then continued down the Inaave for about 3 miles, stopping at some conspicuous sand dunes on the left bank. After that we returned overland to Barrow, staying much of the time on frozen lakes. As we went out it was conspicuous that as soon as we left the immediate vicinity of the shoreline, the snow cover became much greater - still obscuring well over 60% of the ground. But after about 10 miles of this, as we got onto higher ground, the snow began to disappear again, so that by the time we got to the Inaave only about 25% or less of the ground was covered by snow. All of the high centers of polygon areas were uncovered but there was still snow in the troughs. Also
