July 11
This a. m. the traps on the Jerome co. side
of the river held 1♂, 1♀ Peromyscus crinitus
and 1♂, 2♀ Peromyscus maniculatus. All
the females contained embryos. On the
Twin Falls side of the river the traps held
1♂, 1♀ Peromyscus crinitus and 1♂, 4♀ Neotoma
cinerea. The Peromyscus ♂ contained
embryos.
I broke camp about 6:30 a.m. after
getting the specimens and wrapping them
in a damp sack and drove to this locality
via, Hansen Bridge, Shoshone, Bellevue and
Ketchum,
Just after I left camp and near
the top of the canyon wall I saw a
y.g. Marmota flaviventris. It appeared to
be as dark as those found on the N. side
of the river at Hagerman. Also saw one
7 mi. N of Shoshone in the lava beds).
I stopped at a ranch house about
15 mi. N of Shoshone and asked about
C. mollis and Thomomys. The rancher
said there were lots of the former near
Richfield, but very few near his ranch.
He said they had never been there that
he could remember. He said there were
a few small brown gophers in his)
