W. Rimer 1949 Journal 19 July Peña Blanca Springs to Mogoles, Santa Cruz, Ariz. Also stopped to see if Hyla were in place below camp. One was present and in proper rock niche. Others were still missing. Does this mean that each animal has a certain spot to which it returns each day to rest? Such # is certainly suggested strongly! Proceeded to Mogoles where shipping container for specimens procured and various personal matters cared for during morning and early afternoon. Afternoon and evening spent socially with Sykes' family again. Most hospitable! 20 July Mogoles to Santa Rita Experimental Range, Pima Co., Arizona. Packed specimens in morning. Most, poorly preserved and some thought to have hardened properly earlier now not hard. Could it be that intense heat of tunicle parked frequently in sun for several hours has cooled specimens soft? Such should be determined experimentally. Shipped specimens from Mogoles and then drove in part through heavy downpour to Madera Canyon in Santa Rita Mts. Following directions of one D. R. Stolbins
