361. Kaibab Trail to Phantom Ranch. Bright Angel Creek is lined with willows and Baccharis glutinosa. Desert vegetation of Lower Sonoran type predominates. The stream is not cold - to the hand it felt about 68-65°. Has fairly steady flow throughout the year. Stocked with Rainbow trout and Loch Leven trout - there may be other kinds, but not certain. In the spring of 1932 three beavers (Castor canadensis floridator) came to the ranch from their colony about 8-10 miles up the creek, and gnawed down 2 or 3 small cottonwoods near the ranch headquarters. Moore, the ranch manager, complained Brooks had them trapped with steel traps and sent to the museum as specimens. I did not get to the beaver area, but Moore reported them as "bank beavers". This is probably due to the grade and mountain flow of the stream. He says they live mostly on the cottonwoods up the stream. June 1, 1933 I returned via Indian Gardens. There are 23 antelope at the garden. The caretaker says kids were born about March 15, and he believes there are at least 4 of them. The antelopes are fed rolled oats.
