Itinerary
July 13 Twin Buttes, Skamania Co., Wash.
I was unable to get a shot. He appeared to be a blacktail (columbianus) very heavy and dark colored as is characteristic of mature bucks even in summer pelage. Deer tracks and beds are quite numerous in the surrounding country. They appear to be feeding about the burned over areas and retiring to heavy timber to bed down. Large cat tracks were seen along one of the roads near camp. They appeared very large for a bobcat and might possibly have been made by a Canadian Lynx. Birds seen in this vicinity include: Fox sparrow, varied thrush, Mt. chickadee, Mt. bluebird, red-breasted nuthatch, robin, western nighthawk, junco, turkey vulture, thrush sp., alar hummingbird.
Entomias torvaendii are numerous in the heavier timber, while Entomias amoens are common in the second growth timber and bushes higher on the ants. Citellus (lateralis) is also numerous about camp.
The flora of this area, which is in the Canadian zone, consists mainly of Pinus monticola, Abies amabilis, Larix
