July 13. Fair. Had breakfast about 7 a.m. and then Dodge and 1 went to the 
top of Mt. Fortin to get photographs, but were only partially successful 
on account of the scrub growth covering the summit. 3y cutting down a few 
trees and then climbing to the top of another, which on the wind swept 
summit was not over 15 feet high, I succeeded in getting several photos. 
We then walked along the ridge to the eastward and through seme of the 
open park-like and fern covered areas to the summit of Mt. Logan, then 
on for two miles beyond to the first pond in the Great Meadows at the head 
of Pease Basin where we had lujich in a sheltered spot in the scrub. In 
the p.ra. we all foregathered in the Great Meadows. Pease and Smith had 
worked down the "dazor Back" into Pease Basin and after exploring there 
awhile came up the steep slope at the south end of the basin to the Great 
Meadows. Fernald, Griscom and McZenzie had worked around the rim of the 
basin and in the meadows. We all started back from the summit of Mt. Logan 
about 4.50 p.m. Thibault and Dugas went to the Locked Gamp today for more 
supplies. Fortin been with us most of the day. Sharp hail storm about 
supper time and heavy thunder storm in the evening. 
July 14. Cold. 44° at 6 a.m. after breakfast Dodge and 1 went up on Matta- 
ouisse and along ridges and saddles to western scrub-covered end [Mt.Collins] 
taking photographs. Had luncheon by small spring on saddle between Mt. 
Mattcuisse and Collins. Later met Fernald, Griscom, Pease and Smith on 
top of tableland [Mt. Collins]. Got back to camp in late p.ra. very tired 
after a hard trip largely through scrub trees of fir and spruce ranging 
from one foot to six in height. 8 3/4 miles by pedometer. 
July 15. Very foggy in morning at camp in Fernald Pass, but later showed signs 
of clearing. Thibault, Dugas, Fernald, Mackenzie, Smith and I got ready to 
come down to the Locked Samp, and started at 9.40 a.m. Fortin,Dodge, 
Griscom and Pease took what remained of our supplies for a two or three 
days camping trip to explore beyond Pease Basin and as far as possible in 
the direction of Mt. Pembroke and Covert du Charon. We reached the Basin 
campsite at 11.40 and the river at 2.50, and the Locked Camp soon after 
7 o'clock. In late P.m. we all worked at putting specimens in press. 
Cloudy and threaten/ing all a.m. but clearing in p.m. Minges very 
abundant and troublesome about the Locked camp this evening. 
July 16. Cloudy most of day and warm in middle of day. Stayed around the 
Locked camp all day, taking a walk up wood road to get a tfiew of Fernald 
Pass from this point in a.m. with Smith, and again in p.m. with Mackenzie, 
also down road in early p.m. Thibault went out in p.m. to sleep at home 
(Cap Chat) and come in with a team Wednesday. Fernald and Smith ZZxgklZ 
in early p.m. started "light" for two nights and a day at Frere de Hichol- 
abert. Helped change all driers in all presses and collected some mosses 
today. Had supper of peas and tomato soup, boiled eggs, cheese, apple 
sauce, hardtack and maple syrup. Washed underclothes in river today. 
July 17. Fair and warm. Mackenzie, Dugas and 1 had brakfast about 8 a.m. 
and then changed driers in all presses and put out some mosses in cheese 
cloth bags to dry. Very warm in middle of day. 80° at noon, warmer 
later. Walked up river beach in p.m. and later went up river road fcor 
a mile and took some photographs of Mattaouisse and Fortin Mts. 
Fernald and Smith came in about an hour after dark and after we were all 
in bed. They found Hicblabert rather unprofitable.
