Savits, Sean 2005 Journal Smith Lake, Roadless Wilderness, Eldorado NF, Eldorado Co, CA (cont.) Aug. 8 ...searched along the seeps from 8PM-12AM and found 11 salamanders. Most were found under rocks initially but towards the end I found most of them out foraging. I got mouth swabs and photos for all 11 Hydromantes. They were found in the same area (though more extensive) as where I found them last time, below and around the data logger on the east and south sides of the lake. I also saw 6 very small juveniles, all under rocks, that I did not swab. The night was cool and clear, about 10C when I got back to camp.
