H2O
Not too h'd to catch. Most of area
dnstm from there impossible to walk since
too overg'n ? w/ lg trees fallen over.
Walked d'n r/d 'til got to area where able
to get into stream - area where more rocky
areas - more similar to R. boylei - type habitat.
I'd 1 frog sitting on rock (able to put
net over almost completely). I'd 3rd
in similar situation to 1st.
After eating lunch (200 -> 215 pm PDT) drove
down r/d further to where Moosehead ck crosses r/d.
Saw 1 juv. cascadae sitting on rock but it
ducked out of sight before I could get at.
None others seen there.
