53 Heard barn owl flying down over the plate, and also up at the cave. A dozen or more Condors came into the cliffs the evening. Nov. 17 Floo Floo [illegible] Nov. 19 Left 9 a.m. to Castaño Otero; Talked with Sagrredo Palules — very warm October, cool November. Nobody at the campsite along the river, measured lamboos, yearlings leaving out, new shoots just left. Afternoon clouded up. Nov. 20 Went up to the trafficking grid. It is about 150m beyond the third elbow of the zig-zag of the jeep road above the Log Bridge. This is also the elbow where the road to Paso de Nuber takes off to go north. Ante hiked up to the Campamento on to the ridge where Sagrredo's snow pillow is, then on to some snow fields. Have tracks in the snow and hare droppings nearby, about 20 offspring troops hiked up, (plus a weasand carrier to the end of the road). The river is very low. The grid looked the same; stoko A1 still in place. Started to drizzle at 4 p.m., then rain most of the way home. Nov. 21 Dink Sage arrived last night. Went out to San Ramón and Estación Perito Moreno in the afternoon. Bittermann was at San Ramón, said it was OK to catablate at the cave at Sagredo's juncture, and why didn't we catch the deer in his ditch!
