California/Oregon trip
June3 National Forest, including the Whiskey Peak area.
I set up a net with decoys just below
Whiskey Peak from 8:00 - 11:30 am., but no
crossbills heard -- just rufous w. tanagers,
juncos, y-r warblers, o-s flycatchers. This was
an area of mixed conifer w/ doug fir
and white fir, ponderosa & Jeffrey(?) pines.
After this, I left the Nat'l Forest & drove up
to Grants Pass, then explored parts of the
Siskiyou National Forest just W of Wonder off Hwy 199. This was an area of many
dirt roads, cut over Douglas Fir forest with
no new cones -- many very old ones on
the ground -- perhaps will be a good area
in Autumn of 1986 - Winter/Spring of 1987.
As it was drizzling rain, and getting dark,
I headed toward Grants Pass again, got gas,
and went up to Galice, OR, on a branch
of the Rogue River -- then climbed up to
higher elevations (up a switchback) and found
a campfire just above Galice on a ridge
facing NE.
June4 set up the net at dawn. This was an area
of some clearcuts - Douglas Fir - small Doug Firs
dominating with heavy Knobcone Pine on the
