Home to South Canyon
March 15, 1933.
No count today because we moved to South Canyon: 31 deer seen by Julander & Robber enroute. In the South Canyon area, Covania sage & juniper are in excellent condition! In fact there is more range than deer. Many of the junipers which had been denuded in 1924 are now covering these bare branches again with foliage. I have never seen this before and it is generally thought that the "juniper" would not replace itself.
Deer sign everywhere. The snow has been off the ground scarcely two weeks hence these tracks are all recent.
Saddle Canyon
Mar. 16, 1933.
Day's deer total 105. The range covered today is so densely overgrown with juniper & pinus that it was impossible to make a count. Fresh deer tracks were seen constantly, but we rarely saw the deer themselves. Range in excellent condition.
Cougar, fox
