The place today: Jefferson River ascending toward divide
Capt. Clarke, continued our route along the valley: and passed
several fine springs that issue from the mountains. Currants
and service berries are in abundance along this valley, and we
regaled ourselves with some of the best I had ever seen. We
went about 22 miles and encamped. The night was disagree-
ably cold.
