Record Found on the Pass Between the 

 Elwha and the Queets 



eOPY of record found on the pass between the Elwha and the Queets, 

 on Aug. 12, 1907, by J. B. Flett and party, consisting of himself, T. C. 

 Frye and F. H. Plumb. The record was in a one-pound Royal Baking 

 Powder can, lying on a knoll on the pass. It was written on page 255 of a 

 magazine, "Travel, Adventure and Sport," no date nor year to be found, 

 on the margin of an article on Japanese wrestling, the theme seeming to be 

 athletics as a means of defense. Written in a good business hand was the 

 following: "A. M. Godfrey, D. W, Starrett, W. Daggett, on our way to the 

 Pacific from Port Townsend by Dungeness over Docewallups and Elwha 

 Valleys.— Aug. 25, 1894." 



On opposite margin was written: "H. B. Herrick, Aug. 15, 1900." 

 Our party of Mountaineers added : "J. B. Flett, T. C. Frye, F. H. Plumb, 

 three Mountaineers on their way to climb Mt. Olympus, Aug. 12, 1907. ' ' 



On Aug. 17. 1907, when the Hospital Detail crossed the pass on their 

 way with Miss Bailey from Marmot Rock Hospital Camp to the permanent 

 camp in the Elwha. Mr. Plumb produced the can from under the trunks of 

 two crooked dead firs; and Dr. Eaton copied the record. There were old 

 square blazes on trees on the pass and in the Queets Valley, which were 

 taken to be the work of this party in 1894, the blazes seeming to be about 

 that old.
