Hoffmeister 1942 Itinerary 6 mi. W + 3 1/4 mi. S Lone Pine, 6300 ft., Inyo Co., Calif. We drove through the Alabama Hills, east of Lone Pine, both along the canyons of Lone Pine Creek and Tuttle Creek. Along this later creek, many Citellus beecheyi were seen. Not in the hills themselves, but to the east and west of them, Citellus leucurus were seen. The camp along Tuttle Creek, designated 6 mi. W + 3 1/4 mi. S Lone Pine, 6300 ft., is just to the northeast of the Chas. Hoar Ranch, and along the south wall of the creek. In the immediate vicinity, there are pinyons (not dense), Artemisia, Chrysothamnus, and other low shrubs. There is a very small amount of Opuntia and Lupinus. Farther up the canyon, there are firs. Russell found a small patch of oaks also. Along the creek there is a dense growth of willow and birch. Heard Eutamias in the rocks among the pinyons, and there undoubtedly are Citellus beecheyi here, at this elevation, although saw none. Saw fresh tracks of Otocoleus and works of Taxidea. May 27 Drove to 6 mi. W + 1 mi. S Lone Pine where I had 3 1/2 sets (7 traps) for gophers. Caught 1 & Thomomys (botta? ), no. 635. There are numerous workings here, but many of them are old, and it is difficult to trace the burrows, as they usually are very thoroughly plugged. The workings were in the Artemisia-Chrysothamnus association, along the lower fringe of the pinyons. There were scattered pinyons here, but at a slightly higher elevation, they became much more dense. Set 45 traps along the creek, at this locality, among the willow, birch, and Rosa. Caught only Peromyscus
