R.E.Johnson 1968 Journal 130 Nov.22 Bodie, Mono Co., Calif. Following this early morning activity Marv showed me the location of the 3 mine shafts, which contained birds when he saw at dusk yesterday (over hill & north of #5). Back at Bodie we talked to Bill Stelzreide (Ranger) & he told us the State Park authority ends half way up Green Street toward the hill top meaning that the mines we've been examining are not in the park and we cannot be stopped from collecting there. The land is privately owned & he gave us the name of the owner to contact for permission to use the area for collecting: George J. Stathis, Geologist American Smelting & Refining Co. 320 Broadway Blvd Suite 4 Reno, Nevada or PO Box 7637 Reno, Nevada 89502 phone 702-786-1919 Based upon this information we decided to try to capture birds at the shafts which we had been watching since they all were east of the park. This time we drove north, then east down Bodie Canyon & parked near Gray Mill and then hiked west up a dirt road for a little over a mile to shaft #4. This route had the advantage of not passing through state park property.
