Hazy. Ho wind. Took care of some plants before 
breakfast. After breakfast broke camp and at 
about 11.00 A. M. started up- trail to summit 
with Cote' and Joe; Roy ana Perry started up an 
hour ahead with loads. Met them coming down 
near the first open ridge. Roy was ill. I got 
up ahead of Cote'* Joe, and Fernald and walked 
along to the head of Americain Lake to the north 
and back before they got up. We then went up

we visited yesterday and fould cold water and a 
good openplace in which to put the two tents.
