the road race to be over), stopped at a red rock
outcrop (close to road) and other road outcrops below
the road and saw Eurocamp droppings; stopped again
at a palo pichi / Collette stand and found more
Eurocamp droppings x 2. Ft. ease at 3,690 ft. Rattlesnake
droppings there also.
Dec 9 Barilocks.
Dec 10 Barilocks. At 6 pm drove out to Marful's and
then up to the microwave tower on the hill south
of San Fragua Canyon, or about 5 km SE of Estacion
Panto Moreno. Marful said the hill has no name
except maybe "Majón". The top is 4,320 ft.
Temperature and wind moderate. Set traps until dark.
We trekked en route at the first summit 20 km
NE Barilocks and left there 3 cago traps and 6 Sherman
at 2 bushes where there were lots of Eurocamp droppings.
Anta set 15 Sherman, 6 cago traps, and 10 steel
traps and 17 MS. I set 6 cago traps, 12 Sherman,
15 MS, and 11 steel traps. Total = 91 traps, mostly
set for Eurocamp, where droppings were abundant
but not big concentrations.
We set traps until dark, about 9:30, then
checked them at 10 to 11 at which time we
had 6 Eurocamp, 2 Chelomys, 1 Rattlesnake,
and several Longipilis. Another Eurocamp
near my bed at exactly 2 a.m.
