General Account
August - cont -
relatively high density in the
lowland meadows along the river
valley - serving thus as "spill over"
avail to accommodate surplus animals
from below.
August Okpilak Lake - Rain storms began
about 0600 and have continued off and
on late into the morning - sometimes quite
heavy. - Note - writing time! Cleaved up
shortly after noon. Set out traps on T5
and T10 and spent the rest of the day skinning.
11 August Okpilak Lake - clear and warm day.
Ed Dale, Bill Kelley and Ralph Bennett left
in the early morning on a spike trip across
the river to the aufeis about 3½ miles up
the River. Charlie Keeler returned to
the Jago camp at 1200. I spent the day in
and around camp running the trap lines
and skinning.
Max Brewer and Max Britton flew
in with Bobby Fischler around 1500.
They were here for about an hour and
then flew on over to the Jago.
12 August Okpilak Lake - in and around camp
all day by myself running trap lines
and skinning. Strong southerly wind -
catabatic - in the afternoon - otherwise
