In May, when the river ice broke up, we were taken 60 miles [100 km] by ship to Torba, where there was a lumber camp in the Siberian taiga, or subarctic woodland.
Pada bulan Mei, ketika es di sungai mencair, kami diangkut sejauh 100 kilometer dengan kapal menuju Torba; di sana ada kamp penebangan kayu di taiga, atau hutan subarktik, Siberia.
