July 12 Junin Buttes, 4300 ft. 2½ mi. SW Steamboat Mt.; Skamania Co.
Wash.
Caught one specimen in the thick
grass near camp. There is no stream
running anywhere near this area, and
the grass is only wet from the early morning
dew, which readily dries up.
July 28 Stayawhile Spg., 5150 ft., Columbia Co., Wash.
Caught one specimen near the edge of the
stream, the specimen and trap falling into
the water after being caught. The trap
was set in the thick grass where it came
down to the water's edge at this spot.
The specimen (D.F.H. 303) had several fleches on
it from being in the water.
July 29 Caught another specimen in the thick
grass of the "marshy meadow" as indicated
on the sketched map of this area in the itinerary
of this date.
