Behle 1933. coyote peak, 3000 ft. Humboldt co. calf. june 12. 157 & White crowned Sparrow 27/19. Testes large Taken by Gilmore from chinquapin at 3000 ft. 4 mi. N.E. Coyote peak. walked to top of Schoolhouse Peak this afternoon with Dr Yunnell keeping special watch for Horned larks and Savannah Sparrows. Surely if they are in this area they would have been found along this open gentle slope bare in places, with some refuge areas and an occasional isolated gamm oak. The peak itself is not a peak but just a rise in the ridge. The same may be said for coyote peak and many other so-called "peaks" A bench mark recently placed on the summit did not give the elevation but a map gives it as 3055 There are a good many sheep grazing around but the range is not over stocked. There is ample grass and indeed this is the best range I have seen yet in our area.
