October 20 NO OBSERVATION (Joel Duncan) Joel drove west on Highway 1 early in the morning, but at Scott Lake Hill found, having already passed several cars in the roadside ditch, that the whiteout driving conditions were too dangerous to proceed. He waited an hour at the hill, but decided that conditions were not going to improve.

The further adventures of “Elaine” On October 20 Elaine was east of the north end of Abraham Lake reservoir (north Saskatchewan River Valley), probably on or near the Ram Range of the Front Range system, at about the latitude of Red Deer. It is likely that the onset of winter weather conditions will impede her southward progress for the next few days.
