Theodore Roosevelt has returned from a hunting trip and had a pleasant two weeks. He learned how to manage snowshoes and found the northern woods beautiful. Roosevelt visited two lumber camps and was interested to see “a particularly unique type of life.” The hunting and trapping was also a success. Roosevelt will try and be more diligent with his letter writing.
