Aug. 14, 1960 Unnamed Creek along Squaw Peak Ski Lift. patch of flowers (mostly golden rod, but some Erioginum & daies).. at the creek near this. There are a lot of alders near here. Here we got numerous sfits (all the same, S. marmouia ), a ? P. montana, 2 blues (saepiolus + icaroides), and a # Tharsalea avota. Following the creek upwards, I frightened a Rana into a pool. I got it, my first heup of the trip. It is quite yellow beneath, and seemingly larger than the ones in Contra Costa Co.

We got a few more butterflies on the way back, and Tony pointed out a seepage area where we got 4 more Rana. There were no
