J.G. Hall 1954 173 1 June Indian Creek, 7400 ft., White Mts., Esmeralda Co., Nevada to camp about 9. At 5 I set out the flash trap in the willow swamp where some Peromyscus used as bait had been taken a couple of nights ago. In evening I reset my line of 29 traps and saw a yng Saw-whet Owl in the swamp which Ward shot. The Poor-wills opened up better than on any previous eve. This has been a warm, clear day & evening. 2 June 7 SM. Checked trap line & caught 18 Peromyscus, 2 water shrews & one Harvest mouse. At 8, Frank & I hiked down road about 1/2 mile, then crossed over to the S. forks of Indian Creeks. Weather very warm = no clouds all day. On way through the sage flats shot a Ctenodiporus and 2 Scelopor- us. Went up creek bed for about 1/2 mile and passed through some very rocky cliffs on the N side - possibly Ringtail country. Then hit a long stretch of Birch which extended up to some mining lldgs about another 1/2 mile and beyond.
