- April 16 -
We got our things together and
found that we could not get them
all aboard the "Grace E." so we put some
of our things aboard her and got another
boat to bring the rest of our things.
We left Juneau at 9:30 and anchored
in Whale Harbor at 8 o'clock in the
evening. Just as we anchored we saw
a flock of geese go by.

It was clear this morning
and Littlejohn and I went ashore
before breakfast. There were two
bald eagles sitting in the top of
a big tree. In a little bright there
were geese and several kinds of
ducks and we thought we saw
the following species: Goldeye,
Puddy, 2 camp and lots of old
Squaw. As we steamed out the
harbor we saw 3 large finback
whales playing about in the channel.
We reached Windfall Harbor about
noon and spent the rest of the day making
camps
