Up at 0720 & it was not raining. Very cold - hardly above freezing or below. Grass in meadows was still a bit frozen. Had breakfast at the tent to get on track, while we eventually found out were at 4 mi. S Salmon.
Catch:
Micrurus tomzandii - 6
R. Hirtatentus ingolati - 2
Paronyxus truei - 1
Some of my traps had rainlets running through them. We processed the morning's catch on the spot as 1 Micrurus was working & another died. Started on again about 1130. Drove to Grant's Pass 1.3 mi. S of Salmon saw a Sciurus griseus DAR.
Took Introdan 50S over Siskiyou Pass.
The road was wet & with a little snow, but claims
