15 Sept.
Up at 7:30 AM to beautiful surroundings.
To Moapa for gas and breakfast. Stopped
to see Mike to make arrangements for this
evening. Then back to Red Rock Canyon
to process lots. This time went up to
Willow Spring which is in the N.W. part of
the valley. This is an old Indian campground
(Pinto and Anasazi) with mescal pits and
pictographs still evident. Pinon pine habitat.
Processed our lots in this pleasant area
and then attempted to set up some nets to
leave there while we went elsewhere. We
could not find a good set and, as time,
wind, birds and tourists were against
us we abandoned this plan and drove back
to meet Mike.
Mike took us to Grapevine Spring in Kyle
Canyon of the Spring Mts:
