R. Zwerfel 1953 195 Two Pine Ch., Twi W Two Pine, Inyo Co, Calif. Lgt 27 morng. A large shut or small tree (Pirner?) is most abundant along the creek. Also present as an occasional alder and poplar and a few willows. Rose are abundant and creek degraded much less common. The belt of riparian vegetation is seldom more than 20 or 30' wide, measured from one side of the stream to the other. Away from the stream, Artemisia tridentata and Chrysostemonaceae are the dominant plants. Water temperature 6.6°C. From the standpoint of general habitat condition (considering both the low water temperature and deeply shaded stream banks), this appears to me to be very sub-optimal Rana boylii habitat. No frogs were found. That night trapping yielded Bromius merrillae, P. crinitus and Deigdamys geminitimus. Delagone occidentalis was seen this morning. Drove up to Whitney Portal, arriving there about noon. Elevation 8370', Jeffrey's Lodgepole pine, white fir. There is a small dammed up Lake here; could find no frogs so it. A feather-edgy temperature away from the stream water was 6.1°C. One of the streams flowing into the lake was 5.5°C. We investigated a small cave by a waterfall as a possible Hydromantes site, but could find out salamanidae. Delagone occidentalis was seen all along Two Pine Creek when out of the mountains.
