Bernardino Co., Calif.
May 6, 1946.
catching the chuckwalla, we went
into Victorville, picked up groceries
water, fresh ice for the Ensatina
and Bufo californicus, + had the
Coleman lantern repaired. We then
went to a barber shop, where Bob
had his haircut, + I lost a 5 days
growth of whiskers, which had an in-
teresting microflora, but which were
most uncomfortable. Following this,
we left Victorville south on Hwy 66, and
3 miles out of town turned off on road
running WNW (unnumbered) to Little Little
Rock. We turned off this road at Plano,
11 mi. ESE of Little Rock and took a
dirt road almost due to Big Rock
Creek, in the Angeles Nat'l Forest,
Los Angeles Co., Calif. A short way
out of Plano we found a 3' specimen
of Crotalus scutulatus D.O.R., but
it was too badly mutilated to save.
We drove to Big Rock Campground, which
lies at the foot of on Big Rock Creek. Bob
+ I hunted up the canyon all afternoon
for Ensatina, but found none. The
