C. Koford 1951 71 Journal May 18, 1951 To Poto & Heda. Calacala, Dpto. Puno, Peru. Drove toward Cucus to unmarked fork to Poto (about 5 miles from Cucus, 18 from summit of road). Saw occasional vicunas near the river near road toward Poto. Road ascended to 14000 feet but slight grade; poorer than road to Limbani. Shot young tin- Thinocerus ($10.47) amou-like bird & saw 2 smaller young. Shot one of pair of 14000 huallatax & saw other. 19 miles from Limbani - Poto fork (so called because sound like instrument of that name) saw 2 of the "bandurrias" feeding on short grass flat. Had much range brown, pink legs, dark gray wings, elier size & bill (Mrs. P. & Dr. Duffie said there said by Indians to have many lice). 25.1 miles from fork met Sandia road; much more traveled & in better condition than Cucus to this point. Then saw more vicunas & geese then at on any previous parts of this trip. About 10 miles beyond Sandia fork took side road east for 2.6 miles to a group of old build- ings, apparently long ago the Caserio of some locuida. Only a few Indians there; they said road went on to a mine now little fork (14900') used. Returned to highway & on to road to Cananea or Poto, this fork 15.4 miles from Sandia Fork. Drove 3 miles along well- traveled road to small group store & houses of the village of Poto. Bought gasoline. Drove about 4 miles up a road to a muddy but large lake on 15500 ft. plain. About 5 flamingoes in lake and 40+ vicunas & some geese on plain. Shot much- grayed geese & many alpacas. Fine far view of glacier- capped Nevado Neocuyo & others. Saw several wire casabe along road in rock piles & walls near old mining site. Poto turn at 15:00. Then drove back to road & to nana Puntina (35 miles from fork). Highest point on road was
