LIDICKEN 1975 Mark 25 cont. hot ended Drifts on the side of the road up to 5 or 6 ft. high. At just w/ Caly. 96 we stopped in a rest area + had lunch. Strong wind + very cold. Headed off highway 96 toward Happy Camp, looking for Micross butters. At the village of Kramer River, 14.6 mi. from jet of got 99 will 96 we stopped to set some traps in a weaky meadow with blackberry along the edge of the river (across from a tavern).

Then we went on 0.6 mils + stopped again (.6 mi. W Kramer River). Here we set a total of 19 traps: DK - 4 Log. + 2 SL (small) = 6 WZL - 7 L. + 2 SL (small) = 9 SY - 2 L. + 2 small SL = 4 total=19 Then we continued heading W on 96. Most grassy areas were either around houses or heavily grazed, we could not find additional trapping areas, except for a large meadow 1.8 mi. further on by Sportsmen's Motel which might have been good but we didn't stop because it was too public.

Returned to Nats. Fast Camp (Sarah Totten) 1/4 mi. E of Hanbury. Here we
