Journal R.E.Johnson 1965 March 9 Berkeley to Reno, Nevada returned to Reno & the bulldozed area to camp. A beautiful, clear night & great view of the Reno lights. March 10 Peavine Mtn, Washoe Co., Nevada Up on the move at 7:30 AM exploring the road beyond the bulldozed area. The road divides several times. I explored those roads to the right (east) of the barbed wire fence(the fence runs NS up the mtn along a ridge). One road runs NS beside the fence(on the east side of the fence) but there are no signs of mining visible along it so exploration of it was deferred in preference for two other roads, one leading up the next ridge to the east and another running a short ways up a creek just east of this ridge. On the ridge there is a a clump of 6 or 7 Jeffrey Pine trees & among them is a leveled area (appears to be an old cabin site) 20ft. and a short, horizontal mine shaft. From further up this ridge one can see into the creek below (right or east) and on it is a large mine dump part way to its headwaters. Next I followed the afore mentioned road in that canyon but it only goes a short ways, ending at a'spot where people have left considerable human waste (ie. trash). Oh, for the joys of "civilization". Prospect holes visible on the east slope of this canyon do not have vertical shafts where rosy finches might roost. A spring issues from
