I. McT. [Ian McTaggart] Cowan 1935. Alta Lake, BC. [British Columbia]
Dec. [December] 29, 1935.
Clear, melting snow on ground.
In AM [morning] ran trap line getting
1 Peromyscus. 1 Clethrionomys, 1
Dusky shrew, + 1 Cinereus shrew
In the afternoon walked up to
mile 40 through the Lost Lake
trail, up Green River + back
by the Pemberton trail, a
distance in all of about 12
miles, The only birds seen
all the way were about
30 Red backed chickadees,
1 Stellers Jay + 1 juvenile
Goshawk. There were lots
of coyote tracks en route
Quite a few rabbit tracks
in the forest just by the Lost
Lake bridge across Fitzimmons [Fitzsimmons]
Creek. The tracks of a bobcat
followed the trail down from
mile 40. It was interesting to
notice that the bobcat had
not gone through the light
crust on the snow while
coyote + squirrels, even the
rabbits, went through at
each step.
