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.
Maijā, kad upes kļuva brīvas no ledus, mūs ar kuģi aizveda uz 100 kilometru attālo Torbu, kur Sibīrijas taigā bija izveidota mežstrādnieku nometne.
