General Account
11 8 Junction Meadow Kern Canyon
Tulare Co. California. 8100 ft.
From the traps this
morning I got one Chippmunk
from others on the hill and
one Shrew (Sorex obscurus)
from other traps set in the
meadow. Mr. Dixon got two
Peromyscus and one Therotus
from the traps set in the
Artemisia habitat.
This morning we stayed
in camp due to the rain
and in the afternoon set
out for Wallace lake but after
a half hour were driven back
by another rain.
The weather early this
morning was clear. But by
7:00 A.M. clouds began to
assemble and by 8:00 A.M. a
drizzling rain began which
lasted until 11:30 A.M., at
which time the sun came through.
At 2:30 the rain commenced
again and continued till 4:00 P.M.
Put 5 traps from the
hill to a rocky cliff habitat.
