Murray 1449 17 Journal Aug 16 Big Sagoon, Humboldto, Calif. 4 to 5 feet tall, but generally open at the base except for a tangle of branches. In some spots there were a number of ferns. For a number of traps, dug out the leaf litter. Aug 17 Same location In the 50 traps had 18 Cletronomyos californicus, 2 Sorex pacificus, 4 Peromyscus maniculatus (disc). The clethrio was under fir trees, probably Douglas, but perhaps at least partly lowland. Trap on fairly exposed floor of needles, with a few ferns, well shaded. Maintained 4, then 5 gopher traps through the day without success. Set 15 traps in the redwoods, next to where I took the Neurotrichus. This time made a special effort for them, digging down in leaf litter to runways and setting in them, then covering over. Found runways numerous almost everywhere under the tree where leaf litter was an inch deep or more--ran along the surface of the ground. Much of the area was grown with Oxalis, the roots of which made a mat on the surface. Undergrowth often salmonberry & thimbleberry, though
