maniculatus. Considering the number of animals taken
the night before on 25 traps this catch seemed remark-
able low. Shot a 8? Juco over in the Douglas Fir area
that is very light in color appearing like meannse. In one
of the traps there was a white-crowned Sparrow, and
in another a Bufo. Captured another Bufo, a Rana
and 4 Thamophis ordinoides. It began to rain early
this p.m. and continued throughout the night. Last
evening I heard and saw a pair of Flying Squirrels
on the base of a Lodge Pole Pine 3 feet from my
head. They give a series of high pitched squeals.
This evening I pland out 2 traps in protected places
where the rain would not spring them, near some
refuse.
Blanchard & Miller both reported seeing Woodchucks
and Conies up high in the peaks where they were
seeking Lemmocietes. Miller saw 2 of the latter today.
Blanchard brought back 3 Conies yesterday, also an
immature marmot.

Due to the heavy downpour it was useless to set out
any traps last p.m. One of the rat traps contained a ?
Glacomyssabrinus. Shot an Evening Grosbeak from
the top of a dead Lodge Pole Pine near camp. Miller
collected 4 more from the flock. Moved camp early
in the a.m., going back to Cascade. Stopped at noon
on a flat meadow on the W side of the Sawtooth,
