W. Reiner 1949 Journal 27 June Hobbled Creek to 22.5 mi. ESE Desert, Millard Co., Utah Rana pipiens. Impressed by Desert in passing through. Single "Desert Cash Store" and gas station. No other stores, shops, shows, etc. A very "proper" town. Passed through at 1920 and set up camp at above locality next to sand dunes just at dark. 28 June Millard Co., to 2.0 mi. SW Joseph, Sevier Co., Utah Spent most of morning on notes and pickling animals. At 1300 rapidly broke camp because wind sprung up across sand dunes rapidly making a local dust storm. On road to Holden, State Hwy 26, recorded one DOR gopher make. Then turned NE on U.S. 91 to Scipio and took State 63 to Salina. Just N and W of Scipio lake appear several thick stands of conifers in mountains. Hiked into large canyon W of N end of lake in hopes of turning up a new salamander. No such luck! Good thick oak leaf litter, plenty of thoroughly rotten logs and many rocks yet Stebbins said none were sufficiently damp for best conditions. Many similar appearing spots (from distance) seen along road SW Salina. Stebbins thinks well worth
