Peril Strait. Alaska. Aug. 21 to 27 1907. Our camp was on Bear Bay, which is a small bay on Baranof Island, opposite Deep Bay and about three miles northeast of Sergius Narrows. Peril Strait averages about half a mile wide in this part. The surrounding mountains are rather low, with very moderate slopes. There is a little fringe of grass around the bay just below highest tide line, but it is not often more than a dozen feet wide, and is bordered closely by brush and timber. All the streams entering Bear Bay are small; no salmon streams near. Birds and mammals are not plentiful, but shells were abundant. Hasselborg first investigated Deep Bay, but found several Indian families living there and their dogs running all over the country. He then went to Fish Bay, but found but little sign of bears there. Rain fell nearly all the time we were at this camp.
