Next morning our route lay through a line of low, broken hills, with scattered woods, largely burnt and blown down by the wind; a desolate tract, which enclosed, to our left, the Lily Lake Ascútamo Sakaigon a somewhat marshy-looking sheet of water.
The next morning opened dry and pleasant, but with a milky and foreboding sky. Again the boats were in motion, passing the Pusquatenáo, or Naked Hill, beyond which is the Echo Lake Katoó Sakaígon where a good many Indians lived, having a pack-trail thereto from the river. The afternoon proved to be hot, the clouds cumulose against a clear, blue sky, with occasional sun-showers.
On the morning of the 17th we topped the crest of the bank, and found ourselves at once in a magnificent prairie country, which swept northward, varied by beautiful belts of timber, as far as Bear Lake, to which we made a detour, then westerly to Old Wives Lake Nootoóquay Sakaigon and on to our night camp at Burnt River, twenty-two miles from Dunvegan.
