Creator Transcript
  • Rangifer montanus [underlined] Mt [Mount] Revelstoke July 8/37 [1937]. There is a band of caribou in the park. I should say about 20- 30 head split into at least two groups. I have found signs of their winter- ing on the slopes of Mt [Mount] Revelstoke down to 16 mile but the main wintering ground is behind Mt [Mount] Revelstoke toward Eva Lake. Today I worked along the sub alpine country in the east area + found fresh caribou tracks of 3 sizes + places where they had eaten saxifrage + alpine willow. Dung examined seemed to be entirely usnea. In 6 places I found young balsams that had been stripped of branches + bark from 30 inches above ground to a height of 5 + 5 1/2 ft. [feet] Some branches were on the ground + all tips had been eaten. In another place I found where a buck had horned a tree. July 21/37 [1937]. Mr Jack Green, barber, Revelstoke reports caribou abundant N [north] of town on west side of river, reached by Jordan River trail. They cross over 6 miles N [north] of town
