17 June Barrow, Alaska
The hundra sigi look good but all so far
last year. Only about 4 have been
seen in the last few weeks; 2 (These
were brought with mullen).
Occasional dead animals have been
found; Three in good condition were found
D. A.M. Others appeared to be remarkable
last years jaguar owl activity.
Scattered nuts 4 for an area, but
these appear to be disintegrated
jaguar pellets. A dead weasel
was found N. 1 1/2th; Are - but
it may have died last fall. - It was
just laying out - a bare ridge - in
a slight trough.
The number of lemming vents nests is
quite amazing. They are more frequent
near Skarvand where nearly every
single depression has 1 or more. Some
of these are still intact - including the
entrance holes beside. One are a bit
more delapidated. All have been opened,
only I have centauried lemming
remains - greenwater # 1 prot
