Rovits, Dear 2005 Journal Mt. Tom, Fresno Co. and Hell Hollow, Brucetwy and Bridalveil Falls, Mariposa Co., CA June 27 I hiked down from Bald Mtn. and drive on the Kaiser Pass Rd., then turned off towards Sample Meadow and finally towards Mt.

Tom was a few scattered incense cedar, fir, pines, manzanita and other shrubs. Next, I drove to Hell Hollow on Lake McClure in Mariposa Co. to deploy my data loggers for H. frunus. I chose to put the first near Bogby, at a spot Dave Wake visited in 1974. It was in the first small canyon ~5 from Bogby, about at the end of the small arm of the lake that reaches up into Hell Hollow. I crossed the road and creek and hiked up the
