- July 15, 1937. 8 Mile Cabin
Mt [Mount] Revelstoke.
Spent the morning up the
Big Bend highway 28 to 30 mile.
The road passes for 15 miles
through heavy forests of
western hemlock, cedar + western
white pine, with a great
deal of devils club in the
undergrowth.
Further on there is
a huge burn, several
years old where bird life
is more abundant.
I saw 3 sparrowhawks, 2 Vaux
Swift, 3 Evening Grosbeaks, 2
Red eyed Vireos, 6 Ruffed Grouse,
1 Catbird, 2 Cedar Waxwings, 1
Red-tailed Hawk, 2 Lewis Woodpecker
4 Hybrid Flickers, 4 Clarks Crow
2 Eastern Kingbirds, 20 +/- white-
winged crossbills, 2 Redstarts.
Later in the day we established
ourselves in the wardens cabin
at mile 8. In the evening
saw 2 bats + 4 rabbits
on the road between miles
8 + 9.
