L DICKEY 1979 8 June cont. U-shaped trough (?) 102 McG:11 ramp trucks. There were set 2 at a definite wide sides 30 ft or more apart. The two sets were 2 - 12 ft. from each other. Microcline sign has constant non-existant. For the majority of trap sites I dug into the thick mass of sand = "running" 4 - 10" under the surface. A few days later by smaller entrances, this nothing looked definitely pitch. Went back to Idledy when we had lunch, visiting at Jerry's nearby gas station. Then we went into McKinley Park to Savage River Camp when the NSF trailer was parked & Joanne Carey was writing them forms. While setting up, it was hot, with no wind, a swarm of mosquitoes. As we arrived at camp it started raining hard. Got hot my back & we cooked our dinner on an open fire. Later that evening it started raining again & continued all night. Jerry & I worked on manuscripts - evening. At stopping over I took 3 photos, the first looking back at Otto Lake. Several Lepus americanus seen or drove down from Freivbinks. Tanasciurus hudsonicus seen and Park. June 10 Overcast with wind that shows & much cooler.
