V. Memmler 1942 38 Itinerary April 5, Mud Creek, 800 ft., 3 1/2 mi. SW San Juan, Monterey Co., Calif. Maniculatus. Rain continued steadily most of the morning until about 11:45 A.M. when there was a short let up. We quickly packed up and were just taking down the tent when Mr. Sillian arrived. He helped us lash the tent on the car and take us to an Auto Cabin in Salinas. We have a very comfortable cabin in the Anderson Salinas Motor Lodge for $3.50 a night. At 4:00 P.M. we went to Mrs. Sillian's house and he gave Mrs. Grinnell some facts on early history of the Cooper Club. He showed us his library full of Old, New, and Rare books on subject of Biological interest and Historical interest largely. He also has original drawings by Allan Brooks and Louis Agassiz Fuertes. April 6, Muddy Creek Junction with Chular Canyon Canyon, Monterey, Caly. We arrived at Chular Canyon from Salinas at about 11 A.M. We had to wait until 12:00 M before Mr. Sillian could see Mr. Gottlieb Johnson to get permission to camp on his property. While we were waiting I saw a Red-tailed hawk on the edge of its nest high up in a Sycamore tree near Chular Creek. We set up camp at about 1:00 P.M. After
