with his jeep. He responded nobly.
At the 4500' level there is a rather
level area of grass and valley oak. Most of
the rest of the way down the mountain
was lightly wooded with digger pine,
blue oak & live oak. Along the creek there
was a much heavier stand of trees.
There appears to be a good stand of timber
on the mountain, but we could not make it
up there to the level of the timber.
By the time the car was out of the
mud, it was after dark. Except for a
few skinks picked up both driving up
and taking down the mountain, we
collected little here.
We drove until about midnight,
making camp at Fernclmont Flat
on the Ridge Route, Los Angeles County.
There was a mixed chorus of Hyla
regilla and H. arenicolor here, when
heard together, the two calls are quite
distinctive, Regilla with its disyllabic
croak and arenicolor with its mono-
syllabic "quack".
