The place today: Travelers' Rest near present-day Lolo, MT
over some beautiful plains. One of our hunters had remained
out all night, at noon we halted and they all came in, having
killed an elk and a deer. At 2 we proceeded on again, and
had a cold, wet and disagreeable afternoon, but our road or
way was level along the valley. Having travelled 20 miles, we
encamped and our hunters came in, one of whom had killed a
deer, and another had caught two mares and a colt, which he
brought with him.
