Hastings Reservation, Monterey Co., Calif.
Arrived back down around 1330hrs. It is cloudy and cool (40's). Marco is down this week for radio-telemetry work. We reset RC drift fence traps, and a transect of 5 stations (2traps per) west of the grid. We set a total of 28 traps on the fence west of RC. Finished thus by 1530hrs. From 1545 to 1615 hrs we reset MC drift fence traps and all 4 trap rows in the grid (rows 7-10). We set all these traps for telemetry purposes.
2115hrs - out checking traps on RC west drift fence. Partly cloudy, moon is full.

Finished checking RC traps by 0815hrs. Didn't catch any P. Californicus on the transect west of grid RC this am.
We did catch P. bonfii, but didn't record them. Returned to lab to prepare P. bonfii mortality from the RC drift fence.
