RANGERS SAVE ELK
FROM SNOW
Quilcene, Wash. After an
an arduous trip of fifty miles
into the mountainous region at
the headwaters of Dungeness
River two forest rangers releas
ed a herd of eighty wild elk,
snowbound in a draw.
By a queer coincidence Eddy
Hubbard carrying mail between
Seattle and Victoria by airplane
routed his homeward trip inland
over the foothills of the Olympic
Mountains to avoid the strong
gales on Puget Sound, Skirting
close to the tops of the forest
trees he observed the wild elk
snowbound in a natural enclos
ure of drifted snow. He
notified the State Commission
ers.
Alex McPhersonn and George
Gates started at once over a
a trail carrying provisions on
pack horses. The fifty miles in
to the wilderness was made in
two days and the elk found.
The animals were belly deep
in snow floundering about sub
sisting on fir boughs and moss.
Breaking through a snowdrift
barrier, the elk followed the two
men and their horses down into
the valley where grazing was
good.
The Olympic elk usually fore
tell big snowstorms and liurrey
into the valleys, but this bunch
herded up together in a shelter
ed hole and and were cut off
from food. Ex.
