Flacesi the Indians had tied trees and
branehes together to mark the trail. Thia
had been done years before, but the pille8
had grown right along, juat the game, and
these knots in the bodies of the now large
trees or two lashed together, ' looked
, • , ,
curious enough.
Where we found the first packs there was
also camped a Tahltu family. from the in
terior, bringing out fors tetrad° at Juneau.
The principal furs of • Southeastern Alaska
are black, brown ' and grizzly. bear,
mink, beaver, land and siettonartin,
lynx, wolverine; silver, cross and
red fox,, . and occasionally white
and blies fox from the lower Yukon. When
. . .
the akin of any fur -bearing anunal is dark -
colored the fur is poor ; the lighter the
color the better the pelt. Many Indians, in.
moments of forgetfulness, will glue loose
hairs on longaduaa animals just to brighten
up the pelts a little bit: . .
All day we -were beautiful moan,
tain rills, with Water cold as ice. In the
warm dusty day. my eye -glasses blurred
badly' with perspiration. In the Arctic the
frozen breath was as bad, and in general
the near eighted explor'er is short-sighted
for going .on a rough trip. '
Camp 8 was but four mike from No. 7,
but no doubtd ' '
the packers ha done well for
the first day. That night I learned a new
"Wrinkle "on roughing it. I had selected
a nioe spot in a slight hollow, full of leaves,
for making down my bed. 1.1 was out off
just right.at one end by a log, half buried
n the turf that formed an excellent illow.
, P
The next morning the Indians were up by 3,
and they began cutting firewood from the
part of my tree that projected from the
slope. There were nine thousand seven
hundred and forty-two other logs in the
immediate vicinity, all of them dry,
solid and reeking with pitch, while
mine was water•soaked, rotten and
heavy, but they kept beating a tattoo on
it with axes until 5 o'clock, when .they
got away with the first packs, every
mother's son of them stumbling over the
only part of the trunk they had not yet out
For the first mile or two the trail that
day Was strewn with fallen timber. The
natives are quite careless with their camp-
fires, and especially the signal smokes they
often send up when travelling, to convey
.
intelligence to others far away, and this
burnt-out timber soon falls, forming an
almost impassable network of prostrate
trees. How the packers got along so
well over this labyrinth of logs sur-
P rised me more than my own constant
falliug off of them. I had reserved my hob-
nailed shoes for any serious mountain Work
that might occur, but after slipping off of
half the logs skimming over the slick pine
needles in the path, sliding all over the wet
moss of the hill sides andessentially skating
the whole five• miles into camp on the
smoothest -bottomed shoes I ever wore in
my life, I came to the conclusion the serious
work had arrived.
Again that day a number of interior fur
traders passed us on their way to Juneau.
w •
We campedin the evening at the deserted
Indian village of Ah-kah-tee. That was
one of the toughest days of the trip, the
/ d•
rt ions being on the trail from very
early in the morning until 8 at
ni ht. Of course they took long and.
fr!quent rests, but I think they were
needed ones. That evening several coin-
plained of strained tendons, and one of them
a opted the heroic treatment of 'standing
d
a an our nearly knee-deep in the icestored
h If h
water of the mountain stream.
Next it could be noticed that
t m
the Indians were getting sore where the
pack -straps cut and some of them were
,
seen to tear up great broad strips of
blanketing to make new shoulder straps for
packing.
Luneh time, on the 4th, saw us but two
miles on• the trail, comimg up to the first
packs at the village of Klicknoo (deserted),
Just above which there is a beautiful water-
fall on the river.

Indians call "the pole bridge," where aSY
number of pine poles. had been thrown from
either sktore to nieet a high rock in the

bridges are not uncommon on trails, and as
the trunks are usually free of bark and
slippery with the water that hes dashed
over them, they are not the pleasentest
