Machia 1969 Journal (3 July) to check the emergence traps - nothing yet - and look for lemming nests on Beach Ridge. Ended up just walking around enjoying the tundra. Found a few crane flies - all 3 species. Brought these in to try marking with paint spots. Did this after dinner, then counted, cleaned, and prepared tanglefoots, wrote notes, and early to bed. 4 July Barrow, Alaska Beautiful, warm weather. Dave and I went out to change tanglefoots and check emergence traps. Only a few crane flies on the boards and none in the traps, yes. Spent the rest of the day in Barrow at the 4th of July célébration. 5 July Barrow, Alaska In with the manhaul and back to bed to try to avoid a cold. Clayton White came in from Amchitka last night. Spent some time talking with him and, after lunch. He, Dave, and I went out to check emergence traps. It was cold and foggy today - not at all pleasant. Used mud from the road to completely seal up some of the emergence traps. Our first catch - a ? Pedicia from site I.
