R.E-Johnson 1968 March 10 Peavine Mtn Washoe Co, Nevada (cont.) what appears to be a caved in horizontal mine shaft near roads end. A few scrubby leafless trees occur along the creek bottom & in these were seen W.C. Sparrows & Rufous-Sided Towhees. Mtn. Bluebirds & Oregon Junco had been seen in the previously mentioned pine trees. I returned to town & met John Spencer at 9:30 AM. After examining topo maps & discussing other pertinent matters we departed again for Peavine Mtn. We attempted a slightly different approach in hopes of getting a little closer by car to the specific shafts he had in mind than I had been before, however new fences, plus mud holes prevented us from actually accomplishing this. Our route was to again follow the road to the right past the water tank but then to turn off to the left & follow this road westward beyond the bulldozed area which is now uphill on the right. Due to the previously mentioned fence & mudholes we had to travel cross country over sagebrush with the VW bus in order to shuttle between useable sections of road. We finally did pass the bulldozed area & head uphill (north) on another road but squished to a stop in the mud. We walked up this road past a marshy area created by a small earth-fill
