A large-scale 13CO(J = 1-0) survey for molecular clouds was performed toward the Camelopardalis region (130o < l <= 160o, -10o <= b < 20o) by using the two 4-meter millimeter telescopes at Nagoya University. 50,175 positions were observed at an 8' grid spacing with a 2.7' beam and 119 distinct 13CO clouds are identified. Physical properties such as molecular column density, size, and mass are derived for each cloud. The candidates for protostars are selected from IRAS point sources and 62 sources are identified as candidates associated with the 13CO clouds. A statistical study of these 13CO clouds was made. Combining published results of the Nagoya 13CO surveys with the present data, the catalog of the 13CO clouds permits to determine the distribution of the 13CO clouds in the second quadrant within 1kpc of the Sun. The mean surface density is 0.4 Modot pc-2.
