Refugio Neumeyer, who had been setting up traps the next morning, something had pulled out one of the mires on the Sherman trap; the mire was lying on the ground. This has happened in other places also. may 3 At dusk set traps in pure cypress forest about 300 m west of Christie's house. Call it 2 km W Baribabo and 100 m elevation above the lobe. 7 cage traps at the base of big old cypress, 2 cage traps at a boulder below road, and 32 Sherman traps through younger cypress forest. Hoping to get broomrape, but I don't remember ever trapping in pure cypress before. There are a few scattered rodods, cardoncillos, Echbalos, and various grasses. Spent 30 minutes with NVGs, but didn't see anything. may 4 Only 2 mires; an Oryzomys in a cage trap at the base of a big cypress but near edge of road with weeds and grass. The other an Alder sp. image trap by boulder in weeds below road. None of the Sherman traps in the forest were touched. Topo sheet says top of Cerro Leonor (sic) is 987 m. Drove out about 10 km past Sa Paloma Blanca (arrays medio) looking for burned habitat to trap, a couple of slopes south of the road, if better ones were scrub, berbère, acacia, retamo, and some
