Journal 14 July (cont') Vicinity Mt Rainier to Green River Gorge, Washington (cont') might in a campground just S of the bridge. We spent a couple of hours down in the bottom of the gorge turning rocks (we had information concerning the presence of Genbrontus there from JR Slater through [Kristine Tollestrup]). We found nothing, although this could easily have been the result of poor weather conditions: it was intermittently raining and quite cool. Green River Gorge to Morton, Washington 15 July This journal entry was written on 16 July. We got up fairly early - in the rain. The entire day was very cold with intermittent showers. We drove first to Tacoma to check out a Chambers Creek locality Dr. Slater had given us. We found 6 Thamnophis (several others escaped) in a brushy area full of junk, boards, etc. Meg + Toni each saw (and failed to capture) a Genbrontus. I saw none. About 1200 we decided to try our luck at some of the published localities to the south along Hwy 7. We drove down Hwy 7 as far as Morton where, since it was raining very hard almost constantly, we decided to stop at a motel by mid-afternoon. We spent the rest of the day doing laundry, etc. Morton to Paradise Point State Park, Washington 16 July We left the motel in Morton ca. 0900 and drove N on 7 to some localities we had seen on the way down yesterday. We stopped at several logged over areas and turned logo.
