APR. 7, 1948 OUT AT 6:15 TO RUN TRAP LINE (1 MAR.MOUSE, 1 MEROMYS + 7 RATTUS). A HUGE TOAD WAS IN ONE OF MY 3 STEEL SETS - RELEASED HIM + OFF HE WENT SEEMINGLY NONE THE WORSE FOR WEAR. LEN + GEORGE ARRIVED IN CAMP FROM B.K. AT NOON - TIRED, SORE, WET, COVERED WITH LEECH BITES- BUT THEY HAD MADE THE SUMMIT + LEFT THEIR NAMES IN THE BOTTLE REGISTER. LEN HAD 2 PRESSES FILLED WITH SPECIMENS; GEORGE, A FEW INVERTEBRATES + 3 SMALL RATS FROM "TICK CAMP". SUMMIT ABOUT 5000'. TOMORROW WE BREAK CAMP. TRAPPED 26 SPECIMENS WHILE THEY WERE AWAY - THIS MADE MY STAYING HOME WORTH WHILE.
