Bears recognize ice chests as a source of food and will break into your vehicle to get them. ii. NEVER keep food or scented articles in your tent. iii. Put away food, wash dishes, and clean up all dropped food as soon after eating as possible. Do not put food scraps in the fire pit. Food that is not in storage lockers should never be more than an arm’s length away from you. Remember to remove food and scented items from backpacks and pockets and store properly. iv. Make sure all garbage is deposited in animal-resistant dumpsters before you leave the campground or retire for the night. v. Do not over-stuff trash cans or leave garbage bags outside of them. If the dumpsters are full, transport your garbage to other dumpsters (such as at Swinging Bridge). vi. If a bear enters the campground, act immediately to drive it away. Shout, bang pots and pans, and throw rocks and sticks near (but not at) the bear. Keep aa safe distance. b. Water is limited, and should be used sparingly.

I). C, for LO cents. 2 SKETCH OP YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK AND ACCOUNT OF THE ORIGIN OF THE YOSEMITE AND HETCH HETCHY VALLEYS. By F. E. MATTHES, U. S. Geological Surrey. INTRODUCTION. Many people believe that the Yosemite National Park consists principally of the Yosemite Valley and its bordering heights. The name of the park, indeed, would seem to justify that belief, yet noth­ ing could be further from the truth. The Yosemite Valley, though by far the grandest feature of the region, occupies only a small part of the tract. The famous valley measures but a scant 7 miles in length; the park, on the other hand, comprises no less than 1,124 square miles, an area slightly larger than the State of Rhode Island, or about one-fourth as large as Connecticut. Within this area lie scores of lofty peaks and noble mountains, as well as many beautiful valleys and profound canyons; among others, the Iletch Hetchy Valley and the Tuolumne Canyon, each scarcely less wonderful than the Yosemite Valley itself. Here also are foaming rivers and cool, swift trout brooks; countless emerald lakes that reflect the granite peaks about them; and vast stretches of stately forest, in which many of the famous giant trees of California still survive. The Yosemite National Park lies near the crest of the great alpine range of California, the Sierra Nevada.

  • Gold Rush Supplies Read the Following Passage and Answer the Question(S)
    Student Name: Grade 4 ELA Unit 5 Post Test with Computer Enhanced Questions(Teacher Edition) Assessment ID: dna.15359 ib.238392 Directions: Read the passage below and answer the question(s) that follow. Gold Rush Supplies Read the following passage and answer the question(s). Text 1 The following is from the diary of a miner, William Z. Walker from 1849. Mon. Sep. 10th The amount collected by the miners on Bear River was from $4 to $16 and sometimes even $50 per day. Each according to the luck of the miner. Supplies were very high here. Flour $40. per hundred, Pork and Bacon $1. per lb. Other things in proportion Gold–rockers were worth $40. Shovels $10. Picks $10. and so on. Walker, William Z.. Diary, 1849. September 1849, pages 135 – 137. Text 2 The following is from a textbook chapter on the California Gold Rush. During the California Gold Rush, some miners were more successful than others. Most miners earned $6 to $10 per day. But some miners in 1849 could dig $2000 a day! After striking it rich, some miners had a lot of money. This gave Sam Brannan, a store owner, an idea. He raised the cost of supplies for miners. In his greed he became rich without mining. He did not struggle like the miners. In his store, mining pans that were just 20 cents started to sell for $15. In different parts of the state, prices were high too. Miners paid different prices for flour. In September, flour was $50 per 100 pounds. A month later, miners paid $30 for the same flour, but in a different city.
