Cogswell 1949 Journal 75 French Camp, 3100 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. Aug. 20 In my 50 traps, caught the following : 14 Peromyscus maniculatus 1 Sorex (Townsendi?) {see species accounts} About 8:45 a.m. I walked down the road over which we came to a larger grass & bracken "bald" about 1/4 to 2/3 mi. S.W. of our camp along the ridge. The two forested slopes, one facing SE, the other NW (which died) which border this "prairie" have been burned some years back & are now regrown to tall shrubs of Litocarpus densiflora, Castanopsis chrysophylla, a few Quercus chrysolepis chrysolepis, with the interstices of the not quite closed canopy filled with Boulterea shellon & two kinds of Arctostaphylos & some Qteros aquilina. These shrubs reach the top of the ridge from the NW-facing slope, but border on the bracken of the prairie about 100-300 yards below the top on the SE-facing slope. At the extreme SW end of the prairies it drops over onto a SW-facing slope and is there bordered by a belt of Quercus garryana. The burned area also does not extend onto this slope. I collected 1 Zornia tolmiei, 1 ad. & juv. Empidonax wrightii, 1 juv. Spizella passerina & 2 juv. Oreortyx gutta (see respective species accounts). I am starting a separate species occurrence record, by habitats, for this area which will be included at the end of the journal account for our stay here.
