Dorners Camp, Granite Mountains,
San Bernardino co., CA.
Bob, Bruce, and I worked on a
turtle trap that Bob wants to use to
catch a turtle in one pond along the
Mojave River.
Claudia, Pam, Ian, & Dave left today
on their ways back to work at Pisgah
Crater (Claudia) and UCB (the others).
Early this afternoon Bob, Bruce, and
I drove out to Arizona to find some
snakes at night. We drove up to Oatman,
Arizona and we hiked around the summit
a few miles above Oatman. While hiking
around before sunset I got several spines
from the jumping chollas in my shoes.
That was not a comfortable experience.
Anyway, at night we found a long-nosed
snake on Boundary Cone Road. We made
several passes on the road and found no
other snakes - only traffic. So we headed
back to the Granites when it got too cold
for the snakes. Arrived back here at Dorners
camp at about 2230 PST.
