p-237 Continued California Condor Eben McMillan 4 August 1963 resources coming from forest lands. I bring these observations up because of their importance to Condor Welfare. For unless something is done immediately to develop a more responsible attitude among the people who come to the Las Padres and National forests within the range of Condor, that will not be long that condors will go out. Most hunters that I talked with yesterday and today would at condor. There is no doubt but that dead deer furnish much of the food for condor during the next three months. This will increase their vulnerability to being shot. Stopping at the check station in Lake of The Woods inquired as to the disposition of land use operation that was going on immediately adjacent and above the Chuchupate Campground that is located about one-half mile above Chuchupate Ranger Station on the road to the top of Frazier Mountain. This operation consisted of the area in question being dug with bulldozers, the brush, debris, and tops being shoved into the draws, the ridges or swale being left bare with the under burden of rock exposed on the surface. I was told this was part of a development being done by Mrs. Cuddy who owns much property in the Cuddy Valley and adjoining forest. If successful this can nullify portions of the southern range of Condor as a habitat. I was told by forest service personnel at the check station in Cuddy Valley that Game Warden Fisher of Taft, Calif., had left word that he had seen a condor on Frazier Today. Three young hunters on Mt. Pinos said they had not ever seen buzzards to shoot at while hunting there for deer.
