Carol Penn 1969 Journal 2 mi N Cosapalca, 14,000 ft, Dept Lima July 8 I set 15 small Sherman's with oatmeal + 12 snap traps with cornmeal up a creek coming out of a gully near camp. (Where RH trapped last night) This was Stipa + rocks + in some places close green ground cover. There were old large rodent droppings not big enough for guinea pig.. July 9 Traps caught 4, I guess. I only got one, Phyllotis darwini in a snap, + something carried off 3 snap traps. (#5 c?) All The mice we've got up here have loads of red mites. We descended to the foggy zone early morning. It turned out to be a sunny day even there. I saw Hypsibulus as soon as we got to the fog-smog below (town that starts with "C"). Papa León Trece At dusk I set 28 small Sherman's at 15 places with oatmeal at the top of a hill at 4 km ENE Pucurosa. This was all very rocky (lichen-covered) with dots of cactus. We saw a couple bats and heard 2 strange bird night noises. July 10 These traps caught one Phyllotis amiciss. (OP put up). There wasn't anything unique about the place it was caught. All morning we trooped over the desert 8 mi SE Chilca, setting up a grid. I looked under Tillandsia bushes and found large wolf? spiders, small spiders (2 kinds), silverfish, small scorpion. Also an old reptile egg about [illegible] this big. And lots of piles of curly-Q bird droppings, where perhaps birds roost. There were lots of Burhinus tracks, + tracks of a large mammal (tracks 3½" long).
