KDixon 1951 Journal Nov. 1 En route, Berkeley to Redding, Tehama Co., Calif. Departed from Berkeley at about 7:00 a.m. accompanied by Robert Norris and Joe Gorman. We drove the 1939 Dodge truck via Vallejo on U.S. 40 and turned N to the E of Vacaville, driving thru Winters, Yolo County, and later, NW on US 99W. Arrived Redding about 12:45 p.m. After lunch, we bought supplies including anti-freeze and drove E after 2:45, proceeding to Round Mtn. There we turned off highway driving to Squaw Creek and then downstream to Gray Rocks, 21 mi NE Redding, 2500 ft., Shasta Co., Calif. (This locality found on Shasta National Forest map) The area which we reached at dusk, is on a long ridge trending NE-SW; the westerly slope drains into Squaw Creek. The crest of the ridge was dry relative to the more shaded slopes; a woodland of Kellogg Oak, Digger and Yellow Pines, an occasional Buckeye. Downslope to SE were some Douglas fire. Clemathea cuneatus grows impatches on higher, more exposed slopes; scrubby oak (Kellogg?) on sunny slope below lower cave where Gorman has found Hydromantes. Underclube where Corylus and a small amount of poison oak. After 7:30 we accompanied Gorman to a cave where he had marked about 13 Hydromantes five weeks earlier. NR was successful in finding only 2 adults and one cluster of 9 eggs although she spent some time removing rocks from the roof to see if the salamanders had tunneled in. Later we set out a line of three dozen mouse traps.
