Quest 1948 Journal 70 May 19 Trunfo, 1700 ft., Baja California I shot the Eptesicusfuscus this evening. Both the Eptesicus and Pipistrellus began flying about 7:15 P.M. - well after sunset. The day was clear and quite warm, the wind blowing from the east most of the day. Tonight is clear with almost a full moon. Running down the canyon in which we are camped to the town of Trunfo is a water main containing good spring water which arises about 200 yards up the canyon from me. The ranch 100 yards west of me gets its drinking water from the main and water for irrigation from a well in the canyon bottom. Trunfo has many wells containing water but the inhabitants claim it is undrinkable. Despite the arid appearance of the hills there appears to be abundant subsurface water in this region. It is claimed that the town of Trunfo was wrecked by a wind and rain storm after the departure of most of its inhabitants because of the mining company's failure. Animals of all kinds are very abundant here. Smelled a skunk last night. May 20 Leave Location. Minimum temperature last night was 64°F. Saw two Brown Towlees yesterday afternoon near brush fence east of camp.
