Raulo, Dear 2013 Journal Oct. 23 Quirra de los Cuchumatanes, Guatemala One of Nancy Nadelnberg's master students, Giles Ellison, and I flew from SFO to Guatemala on Oct. 21. Bad flight - delayed, then canceled, rerouted to Mexico City, delayed + almost missed connecting flight. Met X Alviria Parra in MEX airport + spent night in Guatemala City. Yesterday morning, met Carlos Vasquez at MVSHVAT. Drove to Huehuetenango, and then on toward San Juan cuchery. Took a turnoff down towards Rio Zuncil and spent night in some really nice, medium canals in San Francisco los Flores. looked for ~30 min for frogs en path to Rio Zuncil, but habitat was terrible (mostly corn, no original or even secondary forest) and river was raging. Lots of rain and fog; got 1 Chalus (saw 2 mire). This morning, drove to San Juan cuchery and took road past cemetery to Aldea Canchicu. Also no good forest here, but got 1 B. lincodii + 1 B. gaballa under rocks. Along road took, got 8 more B. lincodii under rocks over 2 Km (2 more spots). Most were in a place w/ tons of rocks where they had either removed dirt + rock or there had been a landslide long ago. Took surveys for microtime work, then headed back towards junction nr road to Todos Santos cuchumatanes. A few km N of junction met people from the municipality + drove 14.4km W to Puerto del Cielo. Beautiful, mossy fir forest among the nicest clive seen here. Everything covered in thick carpet of moss. Searched for ~10 min (6 people) -> got 10 P. mex. Took microtime surveys, drove to Huehuetenango + stayed at Hotel del Prado.
