  OFFICE MEMO          More Huachuca Mts (AZ) sightings       Date:7/7/97

As a follow-up to Hanks' recent posting (3 July)  from Ramsey Canyon in the
Huachuca Mts of SE Arizona, here are my sightings from yesterday (6 July) from
Carr Peak, which is about 2 miles from Ramsey, and two-four thousand feet
higher (7,000-9,000 feet).  Note that there is rather little overlap between
the Ramsey and Carr sightings

Esp nice were Nais Metalmark (5 seen) and a Thicket Hairstreak (only the 5th
know sighting from the Huachucas).  Arizona hairsteaks were also somewhat
common (about a dozen seen) near the summit
