S.O. Jewsbury 1952 Journal 48 Aug 8 6 mi E Truchas, 10,000 ft Rio Arriba Co, New Mexico picked up the traps I was Micrastus. I made a whole batch of skeletons out of these mics + chipmunks. We cleaned up a bit and broke camp. Headed into Cordoba for mail and groceries. We decided to move into yellow pine frampet to see what it's like on this side of the valley. We drove up the road from Cordoba- towards Borreys Mesa in the Santa Fe National Forest, and have pitched our camp here on the side of a slope, a little way aboom from the road. The timber is yellow pine and Douglas Fir. I heard a chickadee chatter as we drove in. These creatures follow the soft cored Doug fir, and are not strictly "Canadian zone" animals. This spot is about 6-7 miles from Cordoba, but since that is in Rio Arriba Co and this is in Santa Fe Co, we are taking the distance from Pojoaque 16 mi NE therefrom. The altitude here is 8750 ft. Cordoba boasts the latest post-mistress in Northern New Mexico. I set a trap line out under the pines and Doug fir, following a dry wash for a way and then into Gambel oak which is fairly conspicuous here but not so much so as at our Tres Piedras camp. Pearson shot 3 bats, 1 Myotis and 2 Eptesicus.
