The weasel back down the hill - about an
850 slope - and back. Spent the evening
putting up day's till, and finally hit the
rack at 3:00 A.M.
Winds is still blowing - hasn't
stopped since the night we arrived. Like
to blow you off the top of the mountain.
Makes bird chasing kinda rough. All the
sea birds have to do is fold their
wings over onto they blow into the ocean.
Food here is tremendous - Clyde makes
at least 4 pies every day for 10 of us
(Clarence Dolan - Camp Manager ; Clyde
Bates - cook, Aaron Roberts - Eskimo
asset, Laughingwell Eirikgook - mechanic,
2 asking carpenters, 2 sails man from
Ohio State working under NEC contract,
and us-uns.)

A little slow getting going again. Finally
got caught up on notes. Put up another
muroo, plus puffin for chilis, then tries
to get a few more kittiwakes. Too damn
windy! Refueled and peas till dinner.
After repast, took weasel and Lancer
back for bird cliffs. Weasel over. Laker
badly on the hill, so left it and walked
most of the way. Walked North a way
