Pullin, to purchase provisions for the
Trip. At night I loaded the traps
into the car; it was not impossible,
but difficult to put all the equipment
in the back.

1/2 mi. W. Horse Thief Springs, Kergtan
Range, San Bernardino Co., California
April 6
I packed the car and picked up the
two Ross at 9:30. We stopped for
groceries, had lunch at Ross' house
leaving at 11:30 A.M. We arrived at
the Kingston Range at 4:30.
We set up camp before setting traps.
It appears that I have 102 Traps.
It was windy and about 60°. As last year,
we found hole complexes located only
at mounds of dirt topped by several
Sabalita Arrowsa bushes. Quite similar
to the humano at Wolf Hole, I hope
those too are those of O. murrops. We
set out all Traps; I set at least
6 mound complexes. No regular pattern
was followed; some to go from mound to
mound; I think it will be impossible to
find the Traps in the darkness. A
gull moon rose tonight at 8:00 P.M.
There is a slight wind blowing tonight.
