Bridalveil Falls and Cathedral Lakes, Yosemite National Park,
Mariposa and Tuolumne Co., CA (cont.)
the same general area as that I found SMR18 in; I forgot my
GPS and camera in the car, so no photos, vouchers and I'll have
to use the GPS point from SMR18. None of the salamanders were
out on dry rock near seeps and two were in seeps with mountain
heather, Naceinium, willow, grass and moss. I got breeal and
ventral swabs for all four. I continued to search above this
area afterwards until 2305, but found nothing more. I also
collected 6 Helobia for Dean D. The day was sunny and
mild and the night was clear and fairly cold.
