That night's camp, per the NPS campsite reconstruction (Bergantino): Tongue Point Neck, OR

went round the cape and killed two or three ducks. This is
all the supply of fresh provisions that we have had since we
have been at this camp. We live almost altogether on
pounded salmon. The whole of the day was fair, pleasant and
warm for the season.
