1935.
Eutamias quadrimaculatus (?)
July 27, 6 mi. SW Mountain City, Cobb Creek, 6550 ft., Elko Co., Nev.
Several heard on descent from ridge between
Cobb & Van Duzen creeks along Cobb Creek. None
seen. Very wary, behaving like chipmunk of
N Michigan in that takes alarm, scurry away +
utter series of monosyllables. Never showed
selves at close range, visibility range small
due to thickets.
One shot while parking defiance from a
willow at edge of creek: in plain sight about
60 feet away.
