1986 D.A. Good Journal 1000 m camp to 1500 m camp 16 April (ant) 2:00 PM. The camp consists of a small clearing in the forest with 2 pole + plastic structures to keep the rain off. The entire clearing, including much of the floor of the structures is churned up mud. The forest gradually became more and more mossy with elevation. By ca 1300 m, most of the trees had a pretty good covering of moss [illegible], even on the ridge tips, and by 1500 m everything is prettily dripping with moss. - Lots of bamboo and large tree ferns here. Weather - a lot of rain just before we set out from 1000 m but pretty "dry" for most of the hike. It began to rain just before we got to 1500 m + that, in combination with slugging through the mud along the trail, made us pretty wet by the time we got there. Did little but rest after arriving at 1500 m except preparing area beds which consisted of a platform of poles laid on top of 2 loops - so that the platform is raised above the ground. We then collected moss which we put on top of this platform. Then plastic over the moss + our sleeping bags on the plastic. Before placing the plastic over it, we looked through the moss a bit + found a Nototriton + a Centravella. Federice, the night before had found 2 other Nototritons in the same way. To bed ca. 7:30 PM.
