J. Crowley 14/1 Journal May 23 Russian Gulch State Park Mendocino Co., Calif. (Mrs. Brownell, D. Wemmer, J. Gilmore & I) We hiked - starting at 8:00 AM - eastward 2 1/2 mile through the canyon to the falls at the east end of the camp in the State Park. En route we noted Columbine, Five- fingered Fern, and Deer Fern. We also acquired 4 Driurnes (species?) from the camp path through the redwoods to the fall. The Driurnes were all small specimens, unoubtedly the young of this year. Above the falls we saw a small gray squirrel in an alder tree with a nut (?). He hiked inward from the falls heading toward the top of the north slope of the canyon. We reached the pine barrens after a well uphill of about 1 1/2 miles. The tree through which we walked may be for 'fire mice'. In the pine barrens we saw a Hudson Vireo, a Seewet Xreny, 108-2 od Band tailed Pigeon's. Viola and Jean collected the traps set on logs in the forest for chip- munks and found 2 chipmunks in them.
