W.B. Davis 1936. Belle Vue, Blaine Co., Idaho. Jan. 4. Along the river I saw numbers of cotton wood trees that had either been felled by beaver, or partly cut down, in one instance a cottonwood tree about 20" in diameter had been attacked and deserted for the time being. This mammal is reported to be quite common in this locality. Jan. 5. Snowed about two inches last night. Today has been clear. Took another hike north of Bellevue along Wood River beginning at the power plant and then north about a mile and then south along the dry bed of the river. All the water at present is diverted to the power plant. In field from 10 - 4. The cottonwoods are in dense stands along the river bottoms and many of them are good sized trees. Many trees are dead. These growths constitute the main source of fuel for the inhabitants of this area. I saw perhaps a dozen magpies, 20 Mallards, 1 flock of about 30 Black- capped Chickadees, 3 Rocky Mountain Creepers, 1 Rocky Mt. Nairy (woodpecker),
