Journal Harner, H.S. 1978 19 June (cont) 7.5 mi. N, 1 mi. E Santa Rosa, Guadalupe Co., New Mexico dam on the Rio Pecos. At a point about 7.7 mi. N of Hwy 40 we turned west toward the Rio Pecos. About 1.6 miles of windy road brought us to the river. The road dead-ended at an Archaeological (12) site being worked by a large team of men and women from the National Center for Anthropological Studies in Albuquerque. We stopped in a group of Cottonwoods on the edge of the river, and I set out 7 sets along the sandy banks. The river was shallow, narrow and muddy at this point. The day was extremely hot and the gophers were not active. We waited around until about 1900 at which point I had only 2 set- offs. I left the traps overnight. We drove back to the motel-strip along the Hwy and checked-in. Relaxing evening. 20 June 7.5 mi. N, 1 mi. E Santa Rosa, Guadalupe Co., New Mexico 0615 I awoke and drove (alone) back to the trap site. Several set-offs but only captured 1 animal. 1 Geomys bursarius ♀
