From May's journal, dated June 7th: "One old timer there told me that 10 or 15 years ago he always knew when the Coast Guard had been fishing, for he could see tobacco juice spat all over the rocks. Now, he says, he knows when they have been around because of the number of candy bar wrappers that he sees!"--p. 27. Photograph taken near Ptarmigan Creek, a tributary of Kenai Lake, during the 1937 Smithsonian Institution's Archaeological Expedition to the Aleutian Islands.
