Journal Aug. 4 Dear Saddlebag Lake, Inyo National Forest, [illegible] Co., and Peeler Lake, Hoover Wilderness, Inyo National Forest, Mono Co, CA I hiked out from Granite Lakes and met Sean Schaville. We drove to the Saddlebag Lake walk-in campground and hiked east upslope until we got to an area with a stream running down a steep granite slope. The area was quite vegetated with heather, grass, willow, pine and other plants. There were some areas alongside the stream that looked decent for Hydrobaters, but nothing that looked great. We searched for about an hour but found nothing, (37.96141°N, 119.30155°W [WGS84, 10m acc.], 3252m elev.). We then drove north to Twin Lakes and hiked to Peeler Lake and camped. After dark we hiked SE from the lake and explored a stream coming down the north-facing slope of Grinn Point (38.11661°N, 119.46081°W [WGS84, 8m acc.], 2923m elev.). Sean found Perla here and the areas along the stream looked okay for salamanders, but we found none. We walked a few hundred meters east to a small seep (~15m across) next to a large snowfield. There were pine trees and a few plants but not much vegetation and it had a northern exposure. We found two adult female H. platycephalus at 11PM, one out and one under a rock (38.11660°N, 119.45798°W [WGS84, 10m acc.], 2923m elev). I collected both salamanders (SMR #1 + #2). We looked all over but didn't see more. The night was clear and fairly warm, about 12°C. I couldn't see if there were any more seeps on the slope, but there may have been.
