0730 arose and drove to check traps - no captures - pulled traps. Ate breakfast, then cleaned up the motel room.
1000 drove to the "Bar" locality (where we have been trapping for the last 2 days) and took ecological measures:
1 soil samples (from each successful hole)
2 Burrow depth - (top of burrow to surface).
3 Ground slope (approximate)
4 Tree identity
5 Proximity to trees
6 Vegetation density
7 Vegetation samples
8 approximate distance from creek.
The ecological descriptions of each successful trap site appear on the following pages in the following order:

2 Locality near the head of Nogal Canyon
3 Contact zone in Nogal Canyon
4 large Meadows in Nogal Canyon
