[line] Monday Feb 17. 68 [line]
Start early. Drink tea at Ivans barrabora. Push on by Tapolover River, Vesolia Sopka + on to old Ulukuk where the Russians turn off but being ahead of us we don't see them + push on by the Indian road to the new village at [Nukkoh?] where we arrive about dark. Sleep in Hamilcas barrabora. Buy a sable, a pair of snowshoes and a pair of boots. The time I have made today is as good as ever was made over the parrenose by any body + perhaps a little better. My dogs were poor + loads heavy + road not over and above good.

Start late and reach New Ulukuk about 10. Get my two dogs, some fish and a piece of meat. The Russians catch us here and we push on + chi peet about half way between that place + Unalakleet
