Richardson 34 General Account. 43 16 Junction Meadow, Kern Canyon Lolen Co., California. 8100 ft. From all of the traps this morning I took only one Peromyscus from the traps on the hill. During the morning we hunted about the meadow and as far down the canyon as Willow Creek. M. Olson shot a Golden-mouthed Ground Squirrel, 2 Sage Sparrows and a Red-breasted Sapsucker. In the afternoon we skinned and late M. Deacon set out 15 traps in a sage flat between the Kern + the Kern Kanael Rivers near when they come together. There was no evidence of snow during last night but much of the snow of the day before was still left hanging to the trees. By 10:00 AM the sun came out through the clouds and with the aid of a wind soon melted
