20 August
10:00 pm
5 miles SE of Pit River Campground.
Fall River Mills Shasta Co.
Left Alturas today at about
12:00 noon after getting my leaking
tire fixed, and re-supplying for
the final leg of our trip.
We headed southeast on the
299 to just North of the town
of Burney. We are staying
at the BLM's Pit River campground.
We set traps at various
locations within a mile
radius of the campground.
Outside of the immediate
riparian area near the river,
the habitat is dominated
by black oak and grey pine
with a Ribes and poison oak
understory - even some mountain
mahogany, also some Juniper & Yellow Pine.
We enjoyed a great dinner
of halibut. Allison's mother
who was also visiting Alturas
gave us the halibut that
some friends had caught
up near the Puget Sounds -
delicious!
