7 June - cont- around to the west side travelling over the fans to the area of willowes where the shrub nest was located. Then back across the lake to camp, returning at 1800. 5 June Petwo-Schwader Lakes - Another all clear, practically windless day. Willow catkins are maximally developed now - cordeles the blossoms of E. virginatum - shedding pollen abundantly everywhere. Bases of grapes and ridges blooming. Flowers other than Switfrages in bloom. 0910 - off to Schwader L. in the Bombarwill with 1bobbie and Rock. I left them at their temperature station in the middle of the lake and spent the rest of the morning hiking around over the large polygonized fan on the SE side of Schwader - walking about a mile up "Coke" Creek toward Chamberlain. Around 1000 Rock met me out on the ice of Schwader in the Bombarwill and took me over to the flats between the two lakes. I walked fell over this area and up along Whistler Creek as far as the first shrub nest, then back over the flat to the east side
