Bellevue Blaine Co. Idaho Dec. 30, 1936.
I ventured out on skis and visited Mr. Ivy who lives about a mile west of Bellevue. He is a trapper for the Biological Survey, but his operations had ceased on December 1st. He said that he knew of no other trapper in Bellevue, but suggested that I see a Mr. Robinson in Hailey.
I crossed the valley and started up Muldoon Canyon. In a clump of aspen about a mile up the canyon I saw two Junco's, a Song Sparrow, and heard several Chickadees. About 4:30 the snow became so heavy that I was forced to retreat and spend the rest of the day at home.
Dec. 31, 1935
The last storm piled up about 5 or 6 inches of snow in this district. This morning was clear but toward noon clouds came up again although no snow fell. Waxwings were especially numerous this morning, many flocks averaging about 100 individuals were seen, and one flock with more than 300 birds lit in a row of aspens along a road just north of Bellevue.
Visited three Badger traps with Gene Glahn up Water Gulch, which runs into the east
