[[blank page]] [[end page]] [[start page]] Aug. 1 Sent the cook up the caƱon after the horses while we finished up our work & report and packed up. He could'nt find the horses till in the P.M. so we did not get started till 4 P.M. Drove down to the mouth of the river - 20 miles - and camped for the night. It was too late to set traps. " [[Ditto for: Aug.]] Saw a Coyote & some birds along the road, but did not get any thing. " [[Ditto for: Aug.]] 2 Broke camp early & started across to Birch Creek. We are out of provisions & have to go to Nicholia for more. Reached Birch Creek near the mouth at one oclock. Pushed on up the river about 20 miles farther and camped for the night. Still 15 miles from Nicholia & only one more feed left. Have made 40 miles today & some of the way through deep sand. Found a good many tracks of mammals around the sinks between Last R. & Birch Creek, but there is no grass near. Found the first grass where we camped at night.
