I comenced to work on the engine house at Warsatch Station Echo Canion Summit yesterday. The day was very pleasant for the time of year. I commenced work this morning before sunup. It was very pleasant this morning. It commenced to cloud up about 3:00 P.M., and got to snowing so hard by 4:00 P.M. that we had to quit work. We got a stove put up in or tent this evening. We have quite a comfortable place to stay in snow.
