Journal Hefner, M.S. 1974 8 November (cont.) Vicinity of Tehachapi, Kern Co. California ~4,000 ft. NW of Tehachapi and began setting traps. Dave had located a few likely habitats for Dipodomys in the vicinity of Tehachapi. We set 30 traps 0.3 mi NW of Tehachapi, in a field adjacent to the freeway and a housing track. There was low, dense brush, some Chrysanthemum. We then proceeded to a somewhat larger field just off Hwy 202, 2 mi. West of Tehachapi. Here we set 50 traps. Somewhat higher, denser vegetation. We flushed out a Sylvilagus auduboni. We then drove to a campground 0.3 mi. W & E of Tom Sawyer lake, where we established camp; the remaining 91 traps were set in a brushy canyon at this locality. (Campground was actually somewhat west of above locality). 9 November Vicinity of Tehachapi, Kern Co. California ~4,000 ft. 0600 we arose and checked traps with the following results: 1) 0.3 mi. NW. Tehachapi, Kern, Co. California, 4,000 ft, [T32S, R33E, NE¼ sec 20] no captures / 30 traps.
