Journal 241 near telephone pole 22 and walked from there to the USCgs station. From there to the triangular marker at Elson hagoon and then straight thru Holmes Knoss to the CRREL Wamigan. From there along Wildschlag Slough to a point where I could cross it and then straight to the N. end of Gasoline Ridge and from there drive Micro Met back to the cabin at telephone pole 22. I started at 10:50 and finished at 14:45. Total distance about 7.5 miles. At the CRREL Wamigan I took a 1/2 hour test to eat some dried-out cookies and to smoke a pipe. It rained from CRREL to the head of Gasoline Ridge, and this combined with the many lakes in this part of the Traject made it difficult to keep a straight course, especially so since my glasses fogged up half the time. It is easy to spot all the markers, but it is better to walk from the CRREL Wamigan straight to Micro Met till you are across Wild- Schlag Slough and then head towards the North end of Gasoline Ridge. I counted everything within 100 m on both sides. The number of birds seen was rather discouraging. The long stretches of marsh produced little else but Red Phalaropes. Most other birds were seen on the more extensive ridges. The most conspicuous birds today were long-tailed and Parasitic Jaegers. Snow Buntings were found around the Buildings (CRREL, Micro Met and the Cabin at Telephone Pole 22). Presence of Turnstone tends to bias your results, in that their voice attracts other birds. The high score on Red-beds from USCgs to the Beach Marker is a result of this.
