ridge-top and looked in all directions. | 
There was not an elk in sight. There ■ 
was not a sound. ' 
I plodded on to the top of a high divide j 
and followed along it, frequently stop- 
ping to sit down and watch and listen. 
Just ahead of me a snow-slide had start - 1 
ed years ago and had torn a wide path ^ 
in the scrubby timber for a quarter of a 
mile to the canyon below. It had left a i 
clear open path some five rods wide. 
Across this path, following in single file, I 
came a dozen elk. I could just see their | 
gray backs flash in the sunlight as they| 
jumped a windfall and filed across the! 
opening, just out of sight. Trees inter-; 
cepted the view. I could never quite see 
one definitely; always just a flash of one. 
I ran along the ridge past the snow- 
slide and watched the country below me. 
From this point I could see everything 
that moved. And yet nothing moved. 
They had vanished. I picked my way 
down the opening and watched. Their 
disappearance was mysterious. It was 
totally unexplained. 
Then I headed toward camp. At the 
creek bottom I saw something staring 
straight at me not seventy-five yards 
away. It was an elk. I gazed at it four 
full seconds. Then I raised the wabbling 
rifle and looked for the rear sights. 1 
fired and it bounded away. Missed ! 
But I might at least go over and see 
No: I had not missed. There was my 
elk. I felt for my knife. It was gone 
I had lost my knife ! I must attend M 
my game before morning or the meat 
would spoil. I must get back to camp 
and get a knife. 
It was already twilight and it was £ 
good three miles back to camp. I re- 
membered that once I had been consid 
ered a fair runner. Straight down on« 
ridge and straight up the next, I tore anc 
panted and cursed my luck. I found the 
knife. Pop was building a fire and 1; 
merely nodded to him. Then I was off 
It was dark before I found that elk 
and dressed it out and dragged it across 
a rock. Then I started back to camp ir 
the darkness. Where was camp, any- 
way? Two hours went by and I lost mj 
bearings completely. I must have gon< 
past it. Once I made an unguarded stej 
and stumbled. For fifty feet I rollec 
down a rock-slide. My trousers wen 
torn from hip to ankle. I still held th( 
rifle. There was only one thing to d( 
now — signal. I was lost and must ad 
mit it. With a sense of shame I raise( 
the gun and fired two shots. No answer 
I fired two shots again. Only an echo 
Why didn’t they answer? 
I plodded to the top of a ridge, plan 
ning to sleep out. But a half mile awa; 
I saw a tiny fire. It was camp. As 
came up to the group around the fire 
must have been an object of mirth, witl 
my torn trousers flapping in the wind a 
every step. **Why didn’t you answer tn 
shot?” I inquired, as soon as the levit 
had subsided. 
“We knew you’d get in sometime tc 
morrow,” Pop informed me. “You sei 
we’ve located a bunch of elk just dow 
here a quarter of a mile from camp. Yo 
would’nt want to have us scare ’em out c 
the country, would you ?” I acquiesce
