concern in bit banks at about 20 to 30 feet above the present water level. As we got up to the head waters of the Matipedia curiously the valley widens out and we sees at least two terraces, one about 10 feet above the river, the other about 30 above the river. This is south of Lac du Saumon. Further north the country seems to widen out still more but it is getting too dense to make out the topography. Could not see how one gets into the Saint Lawrence drainage. This is a picturesque valley and it will be worth the time to stop over sometime at either Campbelltown or Matipedia and talk to the many local farmers live and then Saint Lawrence trains.
