[[underlined]] Aug 13 [[/underlined]] Sunday. Mailed 7 packages & my part of the report along route to Green R. Basin. Loring has not got his bird list ready to mail.
Had a poor place to camp so started on & camped in a nice little grove & meadow just past old Camp Stambough. A heavy rain came up & we camped in a hurry & put up tent but it did not rain long. Cleared off & we had a pleasant afternoon. Still one days travel from Lander & mail.

[[underlined]] Aug. 14 [[/underlined]] Started early & passing through the old camp of Miners Delight crossed [[strikethrough]] a [[/strikethrough]] 2 long ridges & down into Red Cañon followed it about 6 or 8 miles and then over ridges and low country to Lander where we arrived at 4 P.M. & found Dr. Bagg waiting for us. Came 30 miles with pretty good roads and a drop of nearly 3000 feet. Found plenty of Cynomys leucurus in valley. Lander is a nice town of probably 2000 population in a splendid farming valley.
Camped at edge of town.

Transcription Notes:
Reviewed. Edited markup for consistency with this and other Vernon Bailey projects. Corrected minor typo's and checked localities and species names. Camp Stambough = Vernon might mean Camp Stambaugh -@siobhanleachman
