Sullivan, Barrow, Alaska → Wainwright Between Hultin and Povild — on a few points. August 6 Preparing to go to Wainwright for the 2nd running of the trapline. Also continued work on grasses. August 7 On standby for the flight to Wainwright. 1230 with Felder as pilot left for Liz 3. Weather — cloudy, a little rain. Groups of 5–25 caribou scattered over Tundra. Arrived at Liz 3 at 1330. Set out lines II + III this afternoon. After supper set out III and IV. One long- tailed jaeger flew low across the tundra. It was a warm evening with a little rain. August 8 Captured one Dicrostonyx this morning — along with a couple of longspurs. 2 Parasitic jaegers were flying toward the river. Other birds up present: red-backed sandpipers (mostly juveniles), golden plovers (families), Baird’s and semipalmateds — by the lagoon, phalaropes — juveniles. The sun came out; it was warm and pleasant except for the mosquitoes. Coooled off around 2000; checked traps from 2100–2300 — cool at that time. Many of the stakes on the lines are loose and standing at angles. Pushing them down to the permafrost seems to help. The lines are about 1 mi. east of the station — I believe a couple of stakes of 1 meter or more, painted red or orange at the tip would facilitate
