Coyote Peak, at 3000 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif.
June 11, 1933
Awoke to a beautiful clear day. Last
night a ford roadster drove by camp,
turned & drove back again. Sheep man
Today said They were probably people
out jack lighting deer.
Ran trap line - poor catch. Two besease
Eutamias caught. There are much
more active since the rain, as are
also the squirrels.
For the second time I was able to see
all the vista available country ever visible
from any one locality. To the west,
one range separates us from the sea;
last slopes seem to be more heavily
wooded than west slopes. Also of
a different type of timber. Pine Doug.
Spruce & Tanoak Oak on east & north
slopes - Pine Garry Oak & bare ground
on west & north slopes. To the
east one sees a jumbled mass of
heavily jointed hills, with a reddish
gash that represents the gorge of
the Klamath River, and sunny
peaks about 50 miles away which are
the Salmon-Trinity Alps.
Skinned all morning & part of the
afternoon. Sugar pats & 2 Townsend
