OUR QUOTA NEARLY KILLED. 



187 



Sunday, October 28th. Thermometer 35; high 

 wind from west. Started to complete skinning out 

 the deer, cleaning up the heads and carrying them to 

 the Lookout ready for the carriers, who were expected 

 in the morning. Sighted a herd of deer, coming on 

 the main trail, which passed through the opening 

 where most of our specimens in this section were 

 killed. Le Buffe and the writer succeeded in reach- 

 ing a scrubby cedar near where the deer crossed the 

 water-way which separated the open slope from the 

 barren hills further west.
