by paths worn thru the dead grasses
and weeds. These may cross and
re-cross, but always takes the shortest
distance between two holes. I set
out 50 traps on the colony flat and
18 more part way down the trail to
camp. While putting out traps I
saw a Black-tailed Jack Rabbit
and he headed from the open into
the close thick growing Adenostoma
fasciculatum.
In fact both Cotton-tails and
Jacks seem to prefer this Adenostoma
since all of both I have seen have
either come out of or gone into it.

Some of the other plants and
bushes seen here that are fairly
common are Symphoricarpos
sp?, Solanum sp? var. inter-
medium, Salvia, Agrostis, and
Eris dictyon crassifolium.
Took in traps this A.M. and
saw 2 more Jack Rabbits. And again
they both headed across an open
flat over 100 yds long and plunged
into an Adenostoma thicket.
