new habitats were found. As far as I went
and as far as I could see to the north, the
gulch was forested with the jun-oak
woodland described earlier.

border of Hayfork Creek west of Camp, then
crossed on a suspension bridge to the
north-facing slopes. Here the forest is
denser, moister, and cooler than

It is similar to the forest out the
lower elevations on Hayfork Rally, as
observed on the 19th. The dominant tree
