1986 D. A. Good Journal Cascante to 1000m camp 10 April Spent the day primarily in getting ready to hike up to 1000m. After some preliminary packing, we sent Chris down the trail toward the roadhead to a house where we thought Federico + Manuel might have spent the night. Craig + I walked E along the trail toward the pictures in that direction - another possible spot where F + M might be. We didn't find them + returned to camp. They were there → Chris had found them at the house down the trail. No problems, they just got caught by the dark. The remainder of the morning + early afternoon was spent preserving specimens + packing. Then lunch at 2:00PM. After lunch we finished packing + hiked up to 1000m, sleeping at ca 4:15 and getting there ca. 5:45, at dusk. Craig went out night hunting for an hour or two + got some new Eleutherodactylus, etc (see app. accounts + catalogue). No time to look for Salamanders at 1000m, but one of the mammal people saw what must be an Oedipina inside the 1000m cabin - it disappeared under the floor boards. The 1000m camp is in a tiny clearing completely surrounded by 1° forest. There is a small ca 8x12' cabin with a fire platform + 3 pallets for sleeping. Just below camp is a small stream. There is no open habitat anywhere nearby. Weather today mostly clear to partly cloudy, spattering
