The location of the station is on the bank of the river a few feet to theleft of the river at the left in the illustration. The narrow point of land behindthe trees by the house is the bar made by the sediment from Flathead river,which enters the lake at this point, and which is some two and a half miles dis-tant. The mountains in the background are the Cabinet range. The field laboratory and camping ground are shown in Fig. 7, seen from the. FIG. 7.

Immediately in front ofthe building is the Swan river, which has a bank here of some forty or fifty in front of the building, and at the waters edge, is a large spring, whichfurnishes an abundance of pure water, though the river water is clear and is abundance of room for tents.
