Diary 11 mi. W and 7 mi. S Mitchell, 4850 ft., Wheeler Co., Oregon. (June 16 continued) Camp. Put up my animals and prepared supper. The meal consisted of stew made of various woodpeckers, jays, sandpipers, chipmunks, callospermophila, citellus, and marmot. It was excellent. June 17, 1938 Broke camp at 10:00 A.M. took the Mill Creek Road down to Ochoco reservoir. On the way down stopped at an old mine and explored the drift shaft. The first 50 ft. the air was thick with guano that had been roosting on the ceiling. The shaft was wet and showed no signs of bats. At the Ochoco reservoir on the W side is a small side pool with some large Rana tadpoles in it. (Bullfrog). There were also hundreds of Hyla tadpoles. Made several chaps and found they contains Cladocera and Copepods. The pool measures some 20x40 ft. and is about 3 ft deep. Possibly it doesn't dry out very often. Lunched at Pineville and went over to a point 4 mi. S.W of the city. This camp site is among junipers and is semi arid in nature with a brush cover of "sabbit bush", Artemisia, sage, and other plants. We pitched camp. Villa and Russel went to Bend for supplies and to fetch mail. Set out 50 traps along a lava ridge among junipers. At five it commenced to rain continuing to do so all night.
