May 28 Cedar Grove, S. Fork Kings R., 4600 ft., Fresno Co., Calif.
on the center of the meadow leaving a great fog.
On the return trip, I saw a Chuckaree, Calif. Jay,
Chickadees, a Chipmunk, the White-headed Wood
pecker, and Nutatches in Sugar and Yellow
Pines. The Dimes had invited us to dinner.
J. Dixon had prepared Stephenoi for me;
and also treated us to a showing of the
pictures he had taken at Mt. McKinley,
Grand Canyon and Yellowstone.
May 29. Cedar Grove, S. Fork Kings R., 4600 ft., Fresno Co., Calif.
set 2 traps north of camp, across the
road from the ranger's station. Dipone
was strung at the base of the mountain
range, in manzanita, Yellow Pines and
about rocks. Caught g/ Ceromyocnus [illegible]
in a trap set under a fallen, decaying
log near manzanita, on sandy hillsides.
At 7:45AM party of six including Mrs. Dixon,
J. Ogilvie, Ida De May, Jean Russech,
M. Redon and me - set out on the old trail
for Lookout Peak. After an early morning
temperature of 32°F., the temperature rose
rapidly. At Mountain Meadow we saw a
Sierra Creeper working up a pine tree; a
member of Junecoe hopping about near
the edge of the snow, heard a Piledated
Woodpecker drumming, away up the canyon.
