Mad R. ford, 2700 fr., above Ruth, Trinity Co., Calif.
May 24, 1933.
To the south east loomed Yolla Bolly
Mt. ? - covered with snow or firn.
There due south was a lower ridge
sparsely covered with snow. To the
West there was practically no snow
covered peaks (save perhaps Thule
Ridge & Signal Mt.)
In Junco? seen on summit.
Thin snow - part of ascent were seen
Robins, Junco.
Tirs (Red?) appeared at 4800
fr.; here, however, they were scarce, but
appeared more commonly at snowline,
5700 fr. & especially on northeast
dippe of ridge. Here the snow lay
in banks 10' or so in depth and
covered almost completely the Manganita
and Snow bush.
The descent, in general direction
of Cedar Camp was abrupt. Wood
Beewees were seen at edge of
Timber in Oaks. Ground Squirrels
were seen at snowline and this
sawmows were common.
