0.65 mi SW Squaw Valley (P.O.), 6700 ft.
Placer Co., Calif.
This scene was taken looking eastward
towards Squaw Valley. The general open
aspect of the area is apparent. It has been
cleared for skiing, the clearing at the top
of the picture is Squaw Meadows, and the
skating rink of the Olympic Games shows
clearly. In and along the creek in the
lower half of the picture (running down the
canyon from Squaw Peak) Rang muscosa,
Tharsalea arota, hycarea edithae, and Phycoides
were seen. Dragon flies were conspicuously
absent. Small rodents (chipmunks mostly)
were abundant in the rocks. label should read,
"1.3 mi SW Squaw Valley (P.O.), 6500 ft, etc."
