1 mi. SW Satus Pass, 3200 ft., Klickitat Co., Wash.
Set 60 traps last night in this Transitional
Zone area along a small creek which
borders a dirt road leading along the
southern edge of the Indian Reservation in
this region. It appears to be upper Transition,
and is not a pure Douglas fir- yellow pine
forest area. Caught this specimen (D.F.H. 196)
along the stream which is bordered by heavy
shrubbery, but no grass. I had about 25
traps set in this similar habitat, but
only caught this one specimen of this
genus, together with 2 Clethrionomys
and several Peromyscus, most of the
total of 7 of the latter being caught at
a distance from the creek-bed.
