a corral in Featua - tola, good sign, and about 10 cross- country set at two holes. Feb.3 Two trees in tropa (consagunga), an Elymusduntia in front of a tree hole, and a Ph. sublimis in the corral. Think corn meal would have caught more (than volute). Looked for desert-trees, then drove on. Had driven less than a mile when we came to a soccerfield cleared out of the tola. There remained mostly Pycrophyllum and the little 2-inch tuft grass. Trees were sticking their heads out. Shot 3, and missed 2, here 5 per acre. Drove by red rock canyon at 13,500 ft. (Vioford camp?). Tan perdiz and weina there, two burrows but not fresh ones. Several hours of glorious sunshine here and on the way down to Mogocruz. Shot 4 tree-son at 13,200, gas above Mogocruz, then coupled a couple of miles back - the Santa Rosa road near the beginning of the tola: some old tree droppings. Canto put out traps @ 13,000 ft = some rhydon, something. Feb.4 MON. Heavy rain during night. Trop's quite an assortment. Drove out onto Panpa for crops, then stopped in glorious sunshine for drying specimens, laundry etc. Vicuñas at 12,900 near Mogocruz and again near our guinea pig - tree pompas (Queullet's) Heavy rain in afternoon. Drove on to our guinea pig place to camp for night. The Pompas between Mogocruz and Cantoro is very wet - much standing water, rock ditches etc. Most of it too wet for trees or guinea pigs, but our camping place is gravelly enough with run-off drainage so that you can still drive on it. Panpa is also greener than ever, mostly due to very short tuft grass.
