17 August 10:30 am. Seiad Valley Siskiyou Co. Arrived yesterday at about 2pm. This valley runs in an east-west direction with Klamath river running along it - also highway 96. The vegetation is typically riparrian along the river with hillside vegetation of pine, cedar, and various tall and scrub oaks coming into the riparian zone at times. We set about 30 traps in 5 locations from about 1 mile west of the town of Seiad Valley to about 7 miles east of town along the river and up the hillsides. The houses in this area are again sparse with most of our traps being set at accumulations of sticks at the base of trees that are certainly more from flooded river debris than from woodrats. Some spots looked promising. We camped at O'Neil Creek campground.
