MCCALL, IDAHO
April 29, 1931.
Mr. Edward F. Rhodenbaugh,
University of Idaho, Southern Branch,
Pocatello, Idaho.
Dear Mr. Rhodenbaugh:
I am very glad to have your letter of April 26 and
to know that you are still contemplating a trip into the
Chamberlain Basin region this summer. I feel sure that
you and your associates will never regret making the trip.
Under normal conditions it will not be possible to
cross Elk Summit before about the 10th or 12th of July. That
Is the date we crossed the summit with the first truck load
last season and snow conditions so far this year are fairly
similiar in that region to what they were last season. _You
can drive your car as far in as our Big Creek Headquarters,
which is 90 miles northeast of McCall, or If you prefer to
leave your car In McCall, we can take you in either with
one of our trucks or a passenger car. From our Big Creek Head
quarters we will furnish you transportation by pack string to
Chamberlain Basin, Cold Meadows, or any other point you desire
to visit. We have cabins at Chamberlain and Cold Meadows
which you are very welcome to use as long as you see fit.
You and your associates should bring field beds and
such other personal equipment as you believe you will need.
You can purchase your subsistence supplies here in McCall.
We will take care of the job of transporting your supplies
from McCall and unless you already have a cooking outfit
of commensurate size for your party we shall be glad to
loan you one. At times there is some delay In getting kodak
films here in McCall of the size or sizes you desire. For
this reason, I would suggest that you bring a good supply
of films with you, since you will find many things to shoot
at*
