Maclean 1966 got Niko off for Medoe River - ostensibly to help with departure, but actually more to see the fall colors. Burned a ride into town, and after Breakfast at Edna's, walked over to Browerville and our Browerville Ridge. Saw more Dowitchers than anything - some pectorals and red-backs, all were feeding in exposed pond bottom situations. Continued to Village Ridge, then to Voth Area, and eventually to camp. Saw one group of ca. 6 immature Golden Plovers in Voth Area. Tundra is still quite wet, with a surprising amount of green left in it. Watched the Dowitchers feed - they were using about 1/2 of their bill length which placed them below the feeding stratum of pectorals and red-backs - but probably same type of Chironomios were taken, Bought some more ivory, etc. from jolly Jack's Emporium, then went into Barrow, had some of Beverly's Caribou stew, and delivered James to Wien tour bus. Relief! Spent the evening celebrating.
