Aug. 11 [[/underline]] Rode over to [[?]] [[Reservoir?]] & then south up the valley to near southern end, mapping zones on both sides as I went. Found a big sagebrush valley about 10 [[miles?]] long with lots of desert species, amphispiza nevadensis, [[?]], [[?]], etc. Also jack rabbit tracks & badger holes. Rode about 30 miles on a hard gaited horse & am tired & sore. At about 4:15 p.m. an earthquake shook the camp and ranches, but as I was [[pawding?]] on horseback did not feel it. a ranchman said it shook his house violently & he had telephoned to San Jacinto & learned that it had broken the windows in the bank there.
