  • 30 For Whistlers. We decided to spend the night up there on on the chance of its stopping raining the next morning so sent [Ed] Torkko down for some more grub + spent the night in front of a fire in the rain. June 22 [1931]. At 3 AM oclock it stopped raining and stayed fine till [until] almost noon. At 7 we went along the mountainside to the grass slides + shot 6 Whistlers. T The whistlers taken consisted of 2 ad. [adult] [female symbol] 1 ad. [adult] [male symbol] 1 juv [juvenile] [female symbol] + 2 juv. [juvenile] [male symbol] all were very dark especially the adult animals. which were almost black on the neck. The whistlers seemed to be living on the roots of lupin, the leaves + roots of an Alpine dandelion + the leaves of the big white flowered parsnip. Deer [underlined] 3 large bucks were seen right on the summit of the mt. [mountain] at 4200' later on 2 does were observed feeding on the rockslide about half way down to the Lake. Clarkes Crow [underlined]. All 3 of us observed 3 Clarkes crows [underlined] at close range flying one head. No possible doubt as to their identity We skinned the whistlers [marmots] + hustled down the mt. [mountain] arriving at the cabin at 5:30
