26 Emerald Lake, 9340 ft.
Inyo Co., California
This morning we hiked
over to Heath Lake. Had a
swim and was the water
cold?? Saw as a good
many fish in the lake
in spite of the summer
fishermen. We counted one
school that contained 35-40
fish measuring from 6-18 inches
in length. Other individual
fish were seen. I think that
the number of remaining fish
was due to the large
quantity of frogs that saw
plenty in the water These
frogs seemed to be of a
tad-hopper variety Between
Heath and Emerald Lake we
saw for the first time
on our trip 3 tree Woodpeckers.
At the south end of Heath
Lake we found a Coons log
pile showing evidence that
it had been used for 2 or
three years. Observed 2 Coons
in the immediate vicinity.
