[[underline]] Oct. 21 [[/underline]]. Staged to Wedderburn & crossed Rogue River to Gold Beach.

[[underline]] Oct. 22 [[/underline]]. Found a gasoline launch going up Rogue River so went with it up 17 miles to Frank Lowerie's place opposite Skookumhouse Butte at a convenient point for getting onto the Rogue River Mts. Arrived at 2 PM & had time to climb about 2000 feet and set out a line of traps.

[[underline]] Oct. 23 [[/underline]]. Started early & climbed the ridge north of the river, over first and second Prairie Mountains, Soldier Camp Peak and Sourgrass Summit to an elevation of 3500 feet. Got zone lines, lists of plants & birds & mammals & some specimens. Got back after dark. A hard day.

[[underline]] Oct. 24 [[/underline]]. Took gun & a few traps & started down the trail along north side of Rogue River afoot to Wedderburn, about 20 miles. Got in at dark & got good notes & specimens along way.
Stayed at Wedderburn for work on north side of river.
