Mayhew 1959 Journal 119. Dec. 13 Glamis area, Imperial Co., Calif. However, before we left the Glamis area, we stopped to collect some plants that were in bloom between the canals. We had seen Helianthus niveus and Castor californicus in bloom at our collecting site in the dunes, but we hadn't collected any. We found 8 species in bloom between the canals, most of which we collected. They were: Pectis papposa, Palsopia linearis, Abronia villosa, Oenothera californica, Stillingia spinulosa, Dalea emoryi, Baileya pauciradiata, and Mentzelia puberula. The snow line from today's storm was about 4000 ft. in the Santa Rosa, San Jacinto, and Little San Bernardino Mts. by the time we reached that area. We stopped at Pine Cove for a few minutes on the way home. About an inch of snow had fallen there during the morning, but the sun was shining brightly while we were there. Nevertheless, we recorded an air temp. (30") of -0.5 C. (31 OF.) in the sunshine at 1400. We reached UCR at 1605 after driving 211 miles today, and 511 miles on the entire trip.
