D.A. Good 1980 Journal Carro Muzotal, Chiapas December 15 (cont) to the 2450m. locality where I had caught 1 salamander in hope of finding another (or >1). I had had no luck finding any at our 2800m campsite. I remained at the 2450m locality until 1200 tearing down bromeliads and turning over stones + logs. I found 1 salamander (DAG 302). When I returned to the car I found that the sun had nicely heated it up and since we by this time had run out of ice, I decided that, if I was to keep my salamanders alive, I would have to return to the higher campsite where it was cooler and cloudier. This I did and helped Ed + Duke finish skinning mice until 1:15 at which time we had lunch. I then hung around camp until 15:15 when I took 40 traps and went up to set them beyond my 20 traps already set. I set them in habitat similar to though steeper than, that in which Ed had caught his heteromys. This took until 1700 at which time I returned to camp and hung around until supper was ready. While waiting (ca. 1830) our friend from a couple of days ago came by in a rather drunken condition and he stayed until ca 2000 trying to converse with us. We shared our supper with him. After doing the dishes, field notes + bed.
