Creator Transcript
  • Scotch Camp Aug. [August] 16, 1945. Hot sultry day in valley, high wind on Snow Creek Pass. Left camp about 8:30 + rode to the summit pausing en route to climb onto the first pass north of the actual summit, then climbed the pass leading E. [East] from the summit, had lunch on the shore of a small rock-girt lake + came out via the next pass south. The entire slope of Scotch Creek to timberline is burned off + just a wilderness of spars. On the east side of the pass are a series of steep slopes of rock + grass. It seems to me that sheep might be able to winter on these. They are seen in late fall + early spring on them - principally rams. Found a 1944 winter kill below one of these slopes. Game 3 moose 3 elk 2 deer 2 grizzly Scotch Camp. Aug. [August] 17, 1945 Today we rode to the head of Tyrrel Creek + over the pass out of the park to look down onto Forbidden Creek + on down a long draw to Peters Cr. [Creek], near Indianhead Cabin.
