May 12th Bancroft Bay The same deep snow is Rensselaer Harbor but excellent going along ice foul. Stopped at our cache and to my surprise found 7 old abimos (glors) just above on a sand terrace. Think Kane missed telling there or he would have chosen it. We have two cases for supper 1 Sammie last one, I the other, While filling our tent Arbisio discovered two seals out on the ice. Sammie is now stalking them. Sammie back. It proved to be a rock. Arbisio camped here last year. He says we are close to the big glacier! I do not understand this at all. He came with here from the west southern part of Rensselaer (Harbor in 4 hours. 2 place us according to the map just this side of Bancroft Bay and here we are on right.
