August 17 Missoula Montana (cont.)
MA Thesis - went over the thesis with Dr. Templeton. It is
now ready to mail to Comparative Biochem. & Physio. for
publication.
John Mugaas offered to lend me a car until mine is repaired.
I would have to license & insure it.
Dr. Hoffmann recently returned from a meeting of the Interuniversity
committee on sending us researchers to Russia, etc. Apparently
they are having difficulty getting enough applicants.
My chances to go appear good. The committee furnishes
the transportation + expenses (minimal) there & makes the
arrangements.
August 18 Missoula Montana
After working out plans to use Mugaas' car, I found
out Universal Motors had decided to do my car earlier. It
was ready at 5:30 PM. Approx. $200. Ugh! 4 new
pistons & cylinders + bearings & rods + crank shaft.
Caught up on mail, bought groceries, called MVZ.
August 19 Missoula, Missoula Co. to Racetrack Peak, Granite Co., Montana
Drove from Missoula east via US 10 through Drummond,
Garrison, Deer Lodge to Racetrack (2 miles no. of Galen) & turned
west on a dirt road marked: 12 miles to Racetrack Campground. The
road crosses railroad tracks & passes a bar & then reaches an unmarked
junction. The left road is the correct one. Many unmarked lots
follow but the critical ones (turns) are usually marked. The
(4 miles)
road continues past the campground to Danielsville (abandoned
Danielsville.
mining town) & 3 miles beyond reaches a lot with a trail to
Racetrack Lake. Signs read as follows:
