July 16 - 1933 Left camp at 630 Am to Happy Camp arriving at camping place on Main Siskiyou divide on head of Indian Creek in line between Klamath & Siskiyou Forests at noon (1230) This camp about 2 or 3 miles in an air line below Oregon State line. We got stuck with car just before reaching camp and by time camp was made & car released it was about 330 PM. Climbed Little Grayback mt. in PM for look around country. First place where I ever saw oak growing as a gnarled dicumbent shrub in the rocky summits (6100 ft) July 17, 1933 Traveled about 4 miles along the main divide - 2 down south slope & 2 back along summit. Brush & down logs made it bad going in the hot sun and in addition I had a stiff climb up the slope to regain the top. We reached camp at noon % left at 130 PM arriving at Chatco Inn in Curry Co. at 500 PM a welcome change from this furnace like heat of the Illinois Valley.
