he gave on the subject about a year ago.] The pupfish were really spectacular with the blue-colored exhibiting obvious territoriality. We swam and simultaneously fished for crawfish - we caught 19.- for a few hours.
Around 6 pm I drove S. on 395 with Sue to check out Big Pine Creek. We drove all the way to the top but did not see any sign of woodrat activity. One of the staff in the lodge at the top said he had no knowledge of woodrats in the area or buildings. We didn't set any traps.
July 20. We drove N on 395 in the late afternoon (after spending 1/2 the day touring the Pinyon and Bristlecone Pine Forests of the White Mtns with Tom). Decided to trap two locations E. and S.E. of Tioga Pass. We have already a few specimens in the MVZ from these 2 locations. We set 20 traps at each site:
Site 1. Warren Fork of Leving Creek, on S. side of Hwy 120 in Boulders + small Ashens.
Site 2. 1 mi. S Williams Butte (S.of 120, W of 395)
Set traps under large Boulders + Pinyon Camped S. of Williams Butte. Didn't catch any woodrats. Probably should have worked higher up on the Butte. Crossed Yosemite Park and returned to the Hastings Reservation.
