23 Aug. Colorado, Jackson Co., Mr. Rabbit Ears Peak to
Clear Creek Co., Georgetown. During
morning searched willow thickets
and aspen groves on SE side of
road. Here found P. sylvestica, B. boreas,
P. nigita, P. pipiens and larvae of all
except Bufo. Rand and Grizzly Creek
localities would probably have produced
P. sylvestica had search been long
enough now that niche is in part
known. Though locality here given
as 5 mi. ESE Rabbit Ears Peak it
would have been better to use 1.9
mi. NNE Muddy Pass Summit. Spent
afternoon on notes. Drove in evening
and after dark to Georgetown via
U.S. Hwy 40 E-ward and U.S. 6 W-ward.
Camped at Georgetown for night.
24 Aug. Colorado, Clear Creek Co., Georgetown to Mesa
Co., Grand Junction. During morning
took pictures of several of our live
animals and then headed straight
W for Grand Junction. Stopped only
near Frisco to check once more for
P. sylvestica. Found none in very short
search but did take a large B. boreas
and saw several P. pipiens. Camped
for night at Grand Junction.
