Peterson 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.
