White Rock Ranger Station, 4800 ft, Trinity Co., Calif.
to 2 mi. W. Hyampom, 1200 ft, Trinity Co., Calif.
June 3, 1946
Picked up trap lines in a.m. Several lemusus
maniculatus, which I discarded, and 1 Eula-
mias jowensdii (1788) which I prepared. We
broke camp, loaded the truck + pulled out at
about 8:25 a.m. Stopped at Harrison Gulch on
the way out while Dr. Miller looked over the
yellow pine forest for a census plot. Russell and
I caught some Rana b. boylii. We drove back
to Placerville for gasoline, then turned back through
Wildwood and onto Hayfork, where we picked
up mail and groceries. From Hayfork we
continued on to Hyampom, and established
camp 2 mi. W. Hyampom, 1200 ft, Trinity Co.,
Calif. Our camp is located at the base of a
grassy knoll which is terrorized by cattle.
Below camp about 100 ft. is Carlin Creek, which
is 6-10 ft wide and has a good flow of water.
This area is at the base of South Fork But. The
timber is mostly Douglas Fir higher up, but
around camp there are Garry and Black Oaks,
Douglas Fir, Yellow Pine, Scrub Oak, and some
almost pure patches of manzanita. The timber
is concentrated in small stands, mostly, alter-
nating with open, grassy meadows, through
many of which streams flow, diverted from
natural streams by the ranchers. Aza result,
