9' 06" N.We continued our walk along the south end of this arm for about a mile further, and then halted to breakfast amidst a cluster of pines.
Here the longitude, 112 deg.

57' 25", was observed.

After breakfast we set out and walked along the east-side of the arm towards the main body of the lake, leaving Samandre to prepare an encampment amongst the pines against our return.

We found the main channel deep, its banks high and rocky, and the valleys on its borders interspersed with clusters of spruce-trees.

The latter circumstance was a source of much gratification to us.
