North Crane Creek, (Yosemite Nat'l Park) Sioumme Co, Calif. elev ~ 4600' Stopped at picnic area, ~ 9:00 A.M. walked downstream - lot of fallen logs- lot of "shrubby" undergrowth asp. along stream bank which made it hard to get to at times. Walked perhaps 1/4 mi downstream. Stream only 4" wide maximum & 2-3' deep. Rocks not look too large. Bottom to small rocks. Habitat looks right but nothing seems to be here. Too early?
