‘Give Me My Vacation
Traveling With Rein
deer,’ Says Miss Reat
Miss Ruth Real, who went through
here some days ago. and who is assist
ing in the movement of her own herd
of reindeer toward the Broad Pass sec
tion, in conjunction with the Govern
ment herd, is enjoying her trip im
mensely. according to a letter recently
received in McGrath, in which she
speaks of herself and the herd, in part,
as follows:
“I haven’t journeyed this far in the
sled. Next to my overseas experience,
this trip is the best thine which has
come my way in years, and I’ve cer
tainly had a happy month. Have never
been uncomfortable on the trail or in
camp, and feel now as though 1 never
wanted to live in a house again. Let
other folks have their vacations in
Bermuda, the Thousand Isles, or whero
they will, but give me mine traveling
witb reindeer to Broad Pass!
“The herd is slowing down now and
will be moved forward-slowly to fawn-;
ing grounds, and will be driven on to
the railroad in the summer. Had ex
pected to get them a hundred miles
farther, but it seems advantageous to
stop them sooner than planned. They
have had a long trip, under adverse
conditions in many waj9, and deserve a
rest. We crossed an area where the
feed was poor, or lacking, and had
some twenty losses in those tlyee days, j
but that was not as had as anticipated,
and when we consider the deep 'Snow
encountered, the lack of moss and the
long distance the herd had already
come, we feel they have come through
very well.”
“1 am. of course, looking forward to
seei ng those wonderful peaks at close
range,” writes Miss Heat, speaking of
the planned journey around the foot
hills of the Alaska range’ to the Gov
ernment railroad line.
