Taking good care of that pickup. To this, Warden Miller
stated the cleaning of the pickup was for his trip to Ojai
Tomorrow. He said he must attend a school in Ojai Tomorrow.
a school in fire prevention, he continued.
Condor warden Miller has two horses in the lot behind his
home. He seems to be a person that admires horses and
this over motorbikes. We mentioned not seeing any
Toter-Gates or motorbikes about his place. He seemed
quite proud in stating that Neither he nor his son, [illegible]
who is a fine looking and well built lad of about 17
years, have fallen for the motorbike craze as yet. Warden
Miller also told us of seeing 12 Condor, four of which
were immature, in the Buckshot area some weeks ago. IAN
has the exact date of this from the Report Miller sends
in to Headquarters each month. Warden Miller admitted his
lack of knowledge about Condor and said he identified the
four young Condor, in the above flock of twelve, "by the Book",
meaning Kofords report. He said that those without the pure
white under the wings he took to be immature birds and entered
them as such in his report. Otherwise he has not seen many
Condor of late.
Warden Miller also stated that he had had very little bother
from people coming in on Cow Springs Road. He said that he
did stop [illegible] Trail-bikes at the Oak Flat Station some time
back and before to let them continue on towards Cow Springs.
The reason for his refusal to allow them entry was the type of
spark arrestor their machines had would not meet Forest Service,
