The place today: Camp Chopunnish (Long Camp), waiting for snow to melt
ished our canoe and put her into the water. — In the afternoon
two hunters came in, but had not killed any thing: they had
procured some roots at a village about fourteen miles up the
river. Our stock of provisions is exhausted, and we have
nothing to eat but some roots, which we get from the natives
at a very dear rate.
