Stinking Spring for allergy (algae). A flock of about 20 Pinyon Jays was filtering through the Pinyon-covered ridge nearby. The Pinyon is very thick on the west facing ridge east of Stinking Spring. Onward we drove until the mecca of Green Ranch at 7200' in Green Creek Canyon was observed. E. Carl was found to be established in one of the abandoned shacks there, Green Creek is only a trickle and is dry over most of its course near the ranch. There is a well-developed meadow near the ranch and the pinyon-covered slopes come to the meadow and stop. Where the creek has tremendously eroded its banks right at the ranch, a great gully has developed, leaving the creek bed at least ten feet below its probable former primitive state. Here, where the water table is lowered, Chrysothamnus is abundant in pure stands. Thickets of Salix, Rosa tangles, and other patches of mesophytic vegetation occupy some area. A small group of young cottonwoods grows at the ranch. Although juniper is present over most of the slopes on the drier more exposed places, the Single-needle Pinyon is the dominant tree sometimes in dense stands. Jagged hills and broken ridges mat the topography. The slopes are rocky
