Roots, Sean 2005 Journal Sandra Pass, Judumne C., CA July 9 I hiked out of GO Lake Basin today to Onion Valley. I drove to Sandra Pass, arriving at about 9 PM. I parked at the curve below the 9000 ft sign on the west side of the pass and walked along the creek on the south side of the road. The creek was quite high so I didn't try to cross it. I placed data logger #873953 under the overhang of a large boulder right beside the 9000 ft sign above the creek (38.31977 N, 119.66316 W [WGS84, 8m acc.], 2701 m elev.) at 10:50 PM. The logger is on the south side of the boulder in loose soil among large rocks on a steep slope. I may need to secure it better somehow so it doesn't fall into the creek. I saw one adult female and three juvenile Hydromantes in wet spots and mossy rocks in the immediate area on the slope. There was no vegetation, although there were bushes along other parts of the creek but not on the slope between the creek and road. I collected 12 Delia for Sean Schaefer beside the creek (38.32084 N, 119.66251 W [WGS84, 14m acc.], 2715 m elev.). The night was partly cloudy and fairly mild.
