At noon we passed a deep bay on the south side which is said to receive a river.
Throughout the day's march the hills on each side of the lake bore a strong resemblance in height and form to those about Fort Enterprise.

We encamped on the north main shore among some spruce trees, having walked eight miles and a half.

Three or four fish were caught with lines through holes which the water had worn in the ice.

We perceived a light westerly current at these places.
It rained heavily during the night and this was succeeded by a dense fog on the morning of the 28th.

Being short of provisions we commenced our journey though the points of land were not discernible beyond a short distance.
