AT/RH 1m: 6/4/2009 0:00 - 7/31/2009 16:00 (Bear Damage)
AT/RH 3m: 6/4/2009 0:00 - 9/25/2009 16:00
WS/WD need to compare to other Kougarok sites.  I don't trust specifically the anemometer being pointed north much of the time.  Perhaps fixed on 9/25/2009 visit.
Precip -- Broken all year (tipping bucket removed by animal) but bucket replaced on 9/25/2009 trip.
