Palmer 1935 Itinerary July '19 contd. 7 mi. ENE Smith River, 1800 ft. (cont'd.) About 1/2 mi. below camp in the brush along the ridge, shot 2 Wren-tits and collected a Lamnophis sirtalis. I have never seen this snake so far from water before. The ridge where it was taken is quite dry and covered with dense brush. At 4 P.M. drove down the road to Winter Spring. This is at the edge of the Douglas Fir. The country is rather open and dry and rocky. There are a few scattered small Yellow Pine and Knob-cone Pine, the latter much commoner than the other and generally more scrubby (6-10 ft. high). A good part of the ground is covered by dry bunch grass with scattered bushes of Queanous dumosa, Lithocarpus densiflorus, Manganita, Vaccinium?, and Helodiaceae discolor(?). Shot a Eutamias townsendii from a four Manganita at the edge of the Douglas Firs. Heard Junco, Hermit Thrush, Spotted Towhee and Wren-tit but couldn't see any of them in the thick fog. Set a line of traps (39 gow-size mouse and 4 rat) in a line running down an old road. The bed of the road where not rocky is very bright red clay. Traps mostly on red soil as in rocks at the edge of the road by small
