trails make it possible for one
To get through the brush and
make sets for Sigmoidon and
Peromyscus, but ants are found
here by the millions and
unless one gets to his trap shortly
after the animal is caught the
ants will have done their "dirty work".
Under and about lava rock
ledges are places here frequented
by Urocyon.
In some of the ravines
on the south mountain slopes
the sub-tropical zone up sometimes
as far as 3300 feet, where the
trees are full of fresh green
foliage but the old rocky stream
beds are dry and alive with
ants.
The vegetation on the
north slope changes near the
mountain top from the sororan
glass to low brush which
within a few feet becomes
higher until it passes into
the true sub-tropical zone or the
upper extremity of the coffee.
Along this upper ledge much
young coffee is being planted
and under large lava
rocks boulders in the shade
of big green tree Pine Peaks
Peromyscus are common.
