Child 1956 22 15 July Patnega River, 16 miles SE Cape Sabine, Alaska from last years camp at "12 miles". Thompson was exhausted and I was pretty beat. 16 July Waited for plane to me avoid. I walked back to one cache at the old camp - covering the distance in 20 minutes that took 3 hours by boat. Tried to shoot the D Ron fish with .22 but no luck. Took the largest yag and a M. seconoma for next, plan to raise the former. Saw a Hoebell's Gribble on the lake and a Wolverine hunting around its edge. 17 July Patnega River, 7 mi SE Cape Sabine, Alaska after scouting around this morning the plane arrived. I had seen a Robin, Pacific Loon, and shot an unknown sandpiper 2984.
