Mch. 28. Caught 3 Perognathus & 2 Dipodomys agilis.

Reached Nortons a little before noon, 15 miles.

Camped on east side of river in Canebrake Canon, probably 10 miles past Nortons.

Set traps for Beaver & Musk Rats & other things. 

Camped early. Ran about 25 miles.

Banks rocky with flat patches between the points & brush on these. Mountains mostly bare rock with not a green thing in sight. A thick border of canes extends along each bank where not solid rock

Beaver live in these & I found one track of a Musk Rat.

Killed a little bat in evening & shot at a lot more. They are numerous & seem to be all of this kind.

Made 5 skins by candlelight.

A hot day.
