Ford 2834 Gymnogyps californianus June 8, 1941 Mt. Pinos, Ventura G. Saw no condors all day while on Mt. Pinos from about 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Both at Keyman Camp, Chula Vista, and top of the mountain. Did Peyton tell me that he had seen condors in the hills east of the Pinos. Boris (?) King, brother of Dale King, owns darrest stock land there. That area is accessible via Val Verde Canyon by road. June 9, 1941. Mr. Bailey Ranch, Los Angeles G. I drove from Fillmore to Delano. Turned off at Bailey road looking for Jerry Condron. Drove 3+ miles west of the ridge into a valley with a few cattle. Much rough rock slopes visible toward Pinn Creek, & Jerry probably has some headquarters in that area. A woman at first townhouse after turnoff from ridge-route said she had heard of condors and rarely seen one fly over. An old man who formerly worked and mined (?) in these mountains lived ed about 1/2 mile S+ of the Bailey Ranch gate - perhaps he has some information. The Bailey Ranch area is worthy of investigation via questioning. Some old timers live on Pinn Creek and are reachable from this side. January 10, 1946 Berkeley, Calif. Ward Russell, of MVZ, picked up a condor mounted with outspread wings at the Osher home in Hayward in mid- November, 1945. He skelped the bird, removed the humeri (one broken), & put the bird in study skin form
