Jomich 1953 Journal June 27 Point Barrow, Alaska Thompson checked nests west on the beach ridge. The day was briskly overcast by cirrus and cumulus formations but there was much sun- light and the air was mild. A gentle W. wind blew all day. June 28 Overcast all day with light to gentle west wind. In late afternoon there was precipitating fog and for a time, large snow flakes. Spent the day generally indoors, but went in the evening with Pitelka to look for a snowy owl reported near the Magnetic Observatory. June 29 In the night snow fell enough to nearly cover the ground but this quickly melted off after 7 am. Overcast remained all day and a N.W. wind blew in light to gentle velocities. In late morning I made a lemming census in the drum area. In afternoon censused plot L.E. with Pitelka and Thompson, and searched for nests along the inlet near there. June 30 The day was overcast and cold, with some light snow in the morning. Light wind, westerly. I spent the day generally indoors, sorting notes and prepared one weasel. In the afternoon I inspected hunting nests in drum area. We made no trips by weasel for our vehicle has been in for repairs. Two kinds of Cammuculus are now commonly in flower.
