P. DeBeauchamp 1966 Journal 21 June Meacle River Coal Mine, 157°25'W, 70°24'N, Alaska plower in the area.

In the cache below the CO2 warigam there was a 3 Arctic Cormorant and a 3 King Eider, and 2 Pectorals, a scopol, 2-3 Red Phalaropes and 1 Northern Phalarope, with mud feeding in the shallower areas. In the can larger lakes to the SW, all sorts of neat things were
