Thrader 1960 Journal p. 3 (Apr. 10, cold) Antelope Mtn., Lassen Co., Calif. and 4 more on the left (W) of the road just beyond the summit. We found no more near the road as we drove to the NW end of Hidden Valley. We returned to Susanville and attempted to find a road up into the Susanville Mtns but it proved to be a private logging road. Having no better place to camp we, with some regret because of the cold winds, returned to our camp site of the previous night on Antelope Mtn. Arriving about 3:30 PM we started skinning last nights catch. After supper we got out our snap traps (1 bear and 47) and prepared for early bed. It is really cold here with that steady wind from the W. Although it clouded up rather threateningly before and during supper it now looks clearer. Apr. 11. Antelope Mtn. to Heart Valley and return to Honey Lake Valley Lassen Co., Calif. Up again at 5:30 after a cold [illegible] windy night. Our snap traps yielded only 3 Peronyssus maniculatus. Because the wind was so cold we left before breakfast, stopping for to look along the road over to Willow Creek valley. We picked up our traps there but had no success. We returned to Susanville and picking up our sets NW of town. Here we got 3 Thomsons bottae. From Susanville we drove east toward Kitchfield. We started seeing big gopher arounds, surely those of T. townsendi in the east part of town. They continued to be in evidence along across the valley generally on cultivated land but occasionally in sagebrush. East. We took the road that runs N from the valley
