Clearwater Lake Cabin. July 14/43 [1943]
Saw a bull + a cow with young calf
today. None of these seen yesterday.
Siffleur R. [river] July 15/43 [1943]
This river valley seems to have the
heaviest moose population per unit area
of any part of the park yet seen.
In a distance of 2 miles x 1/2 mile I saw
the following animals - none of them repeats.
6 ad. [adult] [male symbol], 4 ad [adult] [female symbol], 1 calf, 1 yearling.
One the mountainside moose had
been browing willows up to 4800' [feet]. Sign
was in abundance - mostly early spring
+ winter. Willows in river bottom
heavily chewed up. In fact those parts
above snow line are almost all killed.
Big Flats, Pipestone River. July 14/43 [1943]
Saw 3 large bull moose on Pipestone
pass.
Willows down the Pipestone are mostly
of dwarf varieties - see journal - and
moose not abundant. Winter food
primarily balsam which is in places
heavily browsed. All tall willows killed.
Kills: Found skull of an old [male symbol] on
the Siffleur. Spread 53" [inches] - photographed.
Cause of death unknown. nose not
chewed but other bones gone.
