MORNING MISTS ON LAKE GROSVENOR 



For the exploration of the lakes the expedition made use of native skin kayaks, now 

 almost a thing of the past. Our surveyors describe Lake Grosvenor as "the most beautiful 

 place in Alaska," which is high praise from men familiar with the beauties of the celebrated 

 "Inside Passage" of southeastern Alaska.

This beautiful body of water, fifteen miles long, is one of the discoveries of the 

 expedition. The lake is named after Alfred H. Brooks, Alaskan explorer and for many years 

 chief of the Alaskan Division of the U. S. Geological Survey. It was to this lake that the 

 leaping salmon were running (see illustrations, pages 266, 280, and 281).
