Start as soon as Alluianok gets off and go into the hills finding a locality for fossils like those on the Ulukuk River, about a quarter of a mile E from the beach at the fifth small river north of Tolstoi Point. Get as many as I can carry and go back to the tent where I rest + eat berries; find red currants on the vines, just like the cultivated ones at home only the berry is a little larger and tasting just the same. Start down to Tolstoi Point and go about 7 miles taking notes of the rocks dip + thickness all the way + packing back about 30 [?] of specimens. Get back after dark
