Apuyan the road begins to climb gradually & again becomes very common; the difference is that of a quite different habitat from that of the valley; more Spectabilis Mounds, Shrike, Sparrow Hawk, Brown Towlee & Barn Swallows. 5.2 mi. E of San Ant. Apuyon the road comes to Tepezala'. We continued E into the mountains until we came to a place where a culvert had been worked out. We cut up the hill to the side where we got on another dirt road which led E to a small, mostly deserted copper mining town (San Pedro de Cobre) which is nestled against the side of the highest peak in the area - at least as far as we could see.
