Cude 1958 General Account 9 August - cont- Sable's directions I traversed up this divide and came finally out on top of a saddle at 5,000 feet over looking a high meadow where he had seen sheep several times. They were there today too. Spent some time along the saddle and out in the meadow collecting birds. Returned via same route. All along the way - clear to 5,000 feet sign of mica-tine activity was frequent. On Contact Creek shrubby willow gradually peter out at about 3,000 feet. From that point on all the vegetation of the slopes and ridges is essentially low stature-deciduous tuff-of the "broom" type. Meadows of grasls and ridge are local in occurrence and of limited size - few hundred acres at most. Mica-tine high (M. meuri ?) was more abundant on the slopes and ridges than it was in the high meadow where one might expect to find Lemmings and M. oeconomicus. In fact, very little fresh sign was seen in the meadow, and it seems probable that these high meadows are populated with Lemmings and M. oeconomicus only during years of
