M.F. Smith 1981 JOURNAL 2.5 mi. NW Angels Camp, Calaveras Co., California, 1200 ft. Dec. 15 We were finishing as it got dark, got a motel in Angels Camp. Processed the blood, the live animals, and finished skinning. Then went into town for dinner. 2.7 mi. N. Farmington, San Joaquin Co., California, 400 ft. Dec. 16 It was clear in Angels Camp in the morning but foggy as we drove down into the valley on highway 4. Found some good fields north of Farmington. Had the traps out before 11:00 am. Again slow at first. Finished up in the dark, but did get 17 gophers here. We did not save any of the live animals for spleen cells from this locality. Drove to Pleasanton and processed the blood and skinned the animals at my house. Jim and Carol stayed overnight with us and then they got out on Thursday morning to do some more trapping. All of the gophers from this trip have Jim's field numbers.
