look around the base of the rocks & lower down mangosita.
On top of the mt. is a fairly level area with scald oak
& mangositas. There are quite a few finas high up on
the slopes. Saw Acorn Woodpecker, Steller's Jay & H. Pigeon
& a small worn which might have been a Barred but
differentely had no tufting tips to the tail, but fine barring on
the ventral side of the tail & a good distinct eye stripe;
was in scald oak. At the base of the rim rocks I
could look out & see a large fraction of Arizonacaliente.
I sketched a map as follows:
Sierra del Laurel

checked 2 rat traps set for Sigurdson & much grass
while returning from trophy in AM. Had caught nothing.
After dinner set 2 new carnivore traps below camp - 1
a no. 2 steel at base of tree in small side canyon to
the prec we are camped in, & the other (a #1 jump trap)
at base of tree in open valley. Used Paomopus difficilis
as bait. Anticipated 7 P. difficilis from morning catch
which was to be thrown away. All were adults.
