camp, I decided to leave them. I got five on in
"Old Faithful" and my myself. I photo'd a
true fern for Brass & [illegible] a green colada. I did not
spin any set but finish the Projects from yesterday
June 27 1933
The morning dawn misty & raw. I visited
my trap and returned to camp, with four sets all the
usual species. I was only on camp a short while before
it began to fall misty rain which soon turned to rain.
I spent the morning developing a film for Brass (xxix)
toward noon it began to clear so that by 2:00 PM. I looked

this hill one gets a very fine view over the plateau
especially to its E & S.E..

the rock forest. I picked up its lost one. When we went on down
its trail a little ways then down and out on a spur overlooking the
Chirona valley where I got a good photo and we both took some
photos of some flowers. We returned to the track and went
down it again around it till where we could see the,
