June 21, 1951
San Diego County, Calif.
Arrived at Cuyamaca at about five-thirty
P.M. Pass Preacher Campground, where I have
my tent home, in on a very low Transtion
forest where Abetio pine and Kellogg Oak
as dominant
About 9:15 I took off to do some night
driving on the road to the Borrego Deast.
7 miles east of Julian (by road) I found
a slow-moving OOR Rhinoscelus. It had
eaten a small mouse, probably Peromyscus.
Two miles farther on a live one was taken.
The first is good Phil. Bunteri, the second
tends toward R. L. clams. The body
temperature of the second was 17.8°C.
They were taken at 10:05 and 10:15 P.M.
The second specimen was taken at just
before (WOF) summer crossing
Drove on as far as Yagui well and
then discovered that my gas gauge gang
read "empty". I got back to within 6
miles of camp when the gas went out. I
slept in the car and walked and hitch-
hiked back to camp next morning.
