[[underlined]] March 31. [[/underlined]] - Sunday morning & we slept in a soft warm bed till 8 oclock & than had a good breakfast & intended to have a good days rest. But I wanted to photograph a deer yard 3 miles down the lake shore so I went with John Gallager & Mr. Perkins after fixing up my feet with a pair of soft rubbers - improvised leggins.
Found plenty of deer yards where hundreds of deer had spent the winter in deep snow, keeping trails & well tramped areas in dense woods where they could run back & forth from one place to another & where they could get plenty of evergreen twigs & leaves of fir, cedar, hemlock, yew, ground cedar, and the birds & branch tips of maple & birch & ozier and pick moss & lichens from the tree trunks & logs.
