Lilleland (1933.)
Itinerary
(July) July/18 Rumble would assist in spotting or tracing
them and in addition see that they were
properly sacked. Needless to say, driver
also spotted many). We collected in less
than an hour 24 specimens of Phrynosoma
platyrhinus and 2 leopard lizards. After
this we drove to the Allen Ranch in Hot
Creek where we inquired about getting
a hose connection for Dr Hall's car. We
were directed to the Indian Camp a short
walks up the hill where Dr Hall outguessed
the Shoshone and came away with the cooling
system of the Ford repaired.
Spent the afternoon putting up specimens,
At 4:30 went with S.D Durrant and Jack
Arnold to Hot Creek where we set traps in
the meadow along the creek flowing into
the Allen Ranch. Saw no signs of Microtus
mordax which we were eager to take, but
did find several gopher mounds. Lacked
the mattock to dig with so we merely
set mouse traps along creek. Jack Arnold
and self set a few on opposite side of
Road i.e. 5 of Road coming from Fish Lake
Valley - We then drove 4/5 mi S of Hot Creek
and set out traps on both sides of the Road
going to Tonopah. Started raining at 5:15:50
