Monday morning 9. October. cloudy and and cold.

At 1/2 past 5. pursued our route down the Mtn. following the New brork[?] 2 miles, thence across to Obolojokmajessick where we arrived at 8 o'clock got breakfast and embarked and proceed up river- we find the water very low, fell 2 inches since yesterday morning, and the river full of rough high granite rocks, among which we find it difficult to pass and have to haul our Canoes or carry them by many of the rapids- 2 1/2 miles above Aboljokk we pass a Stream coming in from the N.E. and one mile above this we come to great fall 10 feet nearly perpendicular over a Ledge- the River here is not more than 8 rods wide- this is opposite a Portage of about 1/4 mile- which is passed on the N.E. side of the River. 1/2 a mile above the falls is the foot of a Pond 1 mile long called Na,sou,ad,na,hunk,a,moo,sis- there is a range of mountains on S.W. side of the River and Pond and a large Bald rocky mountain on the N.E. side 1 mile above the Pond. We went up rapid and shoal water 1 mile above this Pond and found the water so low we could not proceed unless we carry a long distance.-

Camp at 5.P.M. on the N.E. side.
