Marshall, 1939 Whitaker's Forest, Nov 17-19 they want to make something from their stock this year. they want to burn. They don't care if the land is eventually washed away - they will be gone by then. From Badger Tulare Co. on the original upper edge of the Up. Son. zone we drove up the Red Hill to 5000 ft - all of which country - orig. pines & cedar - had been burned off & replaced by dense brush. Around the edges, young pines were beginning to appear. We arrived at Whitaker's at about 10:30. The night was clear, warm for winter. The weather has been like summer up to now. I walked thru the public camp yard to the "haunted house" attempting to call up Screech Owls.) None were heard. November 17 (Whitaker's Forest) Collected large & small cones from tops of Sequoias
