J. Grotch 1986 journal 84. 27 May the mountainous area the cone crop appeared good for the next late summer breeding session (on ponderosa pine)-- about as good as last year in this area. Crossbills were not heard along the route. It was hot & sunny down in the desert between Clifton and Willcox, Arizona. I headed S on 666 to about 10 mi. past Pearce, Arizona where I turned E to the Chiricahuas (toward Rucker Canyon). Clouds were above the higher elevations of the Chiricahuas. I drove all the way to Rucker Lake when I turned around. Then I headed up a jeep trail about 1 mile, this trail was headed toward the Monte Vista lookout, & went through a canyon with a mostly-dry stream. I found a campsite just at the point where the stream crossed the road.
