6 August 1980 Titus Hollow Canyon, continued p.c.
of muddy, mucky water about 8 inches
in diameter. Trails leading to it indicate
that large animals come to it. Whether
or not they drink, I don't know. I cleaned
out some of the muck, enlarging the
amount of available water. A hand travel
would have helped. If someone were to travel
out most of the muck once a year, it
might improve conditions for wildlife.
But traveling must be done in such a
way that some potential habitat
is left for snaails, in case there are
any here. I put camera number 1 here on
30 July. The camera framed the whole
spring area and a small amount of
the talus slope around it, plus some of
the cliffs behind and the approach from the
wash below. Perhaps it would have been
better to put the camera right near the
water, but I didn't know it was there
until today. Hiked back to the truck,
the last mile by flashlight. Darkness certainly
changes one's perspective!
