Helene, P. 1961 Lemmus 17 June Barrow, Alaska That there are more nests this year than last - which seems absurd. If this is to cae, the animals must have lived for awhile under the snow. The animals from the village have stocked off, so apparently they are going out there too. 20 June Barrow -> Skroavik, Alaska One seen near Voth's area, as we headed for Skroavik; it was caught + failed - 5me mullen is at Pitt Point since we were just heading south to the lake. 24 June Barrow, Alaska activity is still poor - very little fresh working has been detected because of difficulties in separating seven-day old pellets from yr. old pellets. Predator activity has declined. No Pomerians were seen today - but there were a few long-t. t. p. toposites in the vicinity. A fox was seen hunting near Oolipik Slough. 24 July Barrow, Alaska Now seen during the last month. Jay activity has declined, but weasels have been reported (see FAP-JDS) Of 14 weasel nests in the B.R.- 210 acre length - 5 hook weasel sign.
