Windy Cabin on Panther River. July 3/43.[1943]
Left Sawback lake at 9:30 - fine
bright day gusty SW. [Southwest] wind up to
20 mph [miles per hour]. Stopped at cuthead cabin for
lunch + reached here at 5:15 PM.
Trail from Sawback to Cuthead very
bad - numerous windfalls apparently
at least a 2 year's accumulation.
The entire Cascade valley is burned
clean to timber line. At the NW [Northwest] corner
of the junction of the n [north] + main forks
of the cascade there is a mt [mountain] with
a series of fine grassy meadows just
below rimrock facing S [South]. [James (Jim)] Simpson
has counted 60 goat on here in the
fall. Looking up the N [North] Fork you can
see some grassy hills W [West] of the trail
near the pass. These are summer
ram range. The lower parts of
the entire upper Cascade supports
a heavy growth of grass + by all
sign supported a heavy population
of elk last winter. Even so
there is an adequate grass carryover.
However there is no browse so
that this bit of range will not
hold elk all winter, they will drift
down into the aspens + willows of
the lower cascade.
Along the Cuthead to the pass +
down Wigmore creek the creek valley
