Finished checking traps at 10:30 am. Since
there were no B. truei there we decided
to go back down to Boulder Oaks
campground to try for more P. californicus
& P. maniculatus. First we checked out
Leguna campground, but vegetation there
was about the same. Went on the Desert
View nature trail. One very small patch of
pignon pine there, but apparently they are
rare on the mountain, and seem more
on the slope down to the desert, although
we hadn't seen any the day we drove as
far as Live Oak Springs. Arrived at
Boulder Oaks at ~2:45pm. It is hotter
today than before and we decided to wait
until later to go out to set traps. Went out
at 5:00 pm to set in chaparral along
Bear Valley Road. Checked mileages again.
Boulder Oak grove is 0.7 mi. from Buckman Springs
Rd. Upper chaparral site is 0.6 mi. from gate
lower chaparral site 0.5 mi. from gate to Buckman
Springs Rd. Set 100 large folding Sherman in chaparral.
