into, Jean 2004 Journal June 7 Middle Paradise Valley to GO Lake Basin, Kings Canyon NP, Fresno Co., CA I saw a small adult black bear near Upper Paradise Valley in the morning. I spent the whole day hiking to GO Lake Basin. Checked out a complex of granite seeps at the intersection of the trail from Paradise Valley and the John Muir trail. Habitat looked OK for Hydrantes, but there wasn't much water flowing over the rock. The weather was sunny and around 70°F for most of the day, but the evening in GO Lake was very cold and windy. June 8 GO Lake Basin, Kings Canyon National Park, Fresno Co., CA I looked for Rob and Nana's camp all morning but didn't find it. I spent the afternoon looking for Hydrantes plethophalus. I checked the seeps and streams on the north side of Mt. Cotter in a very snowy area. I found one juvenile near the top of the ridge but it died while I was transporting it back to camp, probably because of heat stress. I will be more careful to replenish its spray from now on to keep the salamanders cool during transport. I found an adult salamander on the east side of Mt. Cotter under a rock in a stream and collected it. It was also in a very snowy area. The weather today was sunny and in the 60's in the morning and early afternoon, then became partly cloudy around 4PM, at which point it became much cooler, perhaps in the 50's.
