Murray 1949 Journal Aug 29 3 mi N Willow Creek, 700ft; Humboldt G., Calif. 1 Sorex trowbridgii, 3♂, 2♀ Peromyscus maniculatus, Traps of old line along Coon Creek had 1 Microtus oregoni, 1 Sorex pacificus, 1 Sorex trowbridgii, 3 Peromyscus. all Peromyscus were discarded. At edge of Horse Sinto Creek found a Triturus regularis out on rock at 8 AM. In the afternoon went out with Dr. Pearson to hunt bats. First went to an old mine on the highway back through Hoopa and 2 or 3 miles farther north. This had a good horizontal shaft with several vertical ones going upward. There was a good bit of water in it and the walls were mostly seeping. No bats. Then went back and checked the attic of Brizard's Grocery store in Willow Creek and a neighboring ranch house. No bats. Set traps on the grassy "island" of Horse Sinto Creek, and the lower grassy patch of the Trail. Also put some along a small but vigorous creek about 3/4 mile south along the road from Horse Sinto-called Ginseng Creek . This is quite rocky and very moist, being well shaded by maples and the steep banks. Has many sword braches
