near Smith Creek Cave, 5,800 ft, TTH Monarch White Pine Co., Nevada Lee Arnold 1937 Itinerary from the spot the one was seen on yesterday. I shot at it again but apparently it was still too far away to suffer greatly from the shot. When I returned to camp I identified it as a Rock Squirrel (Otospermophilus ) Last night Johnson and Fitch set traps several miles down the valley and made camp near their traphine. I set out 42 traps on the side hill southeast of camp. This area where I collected consisted of sparsely covered coarse dirt and gravel. Most of the traps were set where the hill formed about a 45 angle from the horizon. This morning when I went around to the traps I had: 3 Dipodomys microps 2 F -1 M 3 Peromyscus maniculatus 1 Ad. ?; 1 Ad. F; 1 Imm. 2 " crinitus 1 Ad. F; 1 Imm. M 3 Neotoma lepida 1 Ad. F 2 Imm. M June 10 Last night the three of us drove out on the desert east of camp to a spot about 2 miles east of Smith Creek Cave. I set my traps across the flat of the creek and out over the flat sandy sparsely brushed desert for a few hundred yards. On the way home I saw one Jack Rabbit and several Cottontails,
