Bartholf pre- viously had made a flight into the district by airplane, leaving a cache of provisions for the summer work, /but when he and his companions reached the spot later they discov- ered to their dismay that bears had found the cache and made a very complete job of destroying it. Virtually everything was gone with beans. There were trails leading to the cache from all directions, indicating that the bears had called frequent- ly and that there were quite a number of them. But they, as well as the cache, had disappeared by the time . the prospectors arrived |on the scene; although it was dis- covered later that there were many in the country roundabout. It would have been' necessary for the three men to return to Tal- keetna speedily. had they not been fortunate in running across a young brown hear shortly after their arrival in the district. It was shot by Deardorf and its car- lof tender steaks. Meat formed the principal itemx of the diet during the several weeks the men were in the district. GET A CORONA For Your Sehool Work | 3. B.
