Lucas M. 1972 Journal middle fork of Sacuume River, Sacramento Co., Calif. elev. ~4400' - 4500' wide (12-15') & rather deep (up to 4') in some places. Lot of large boulders & bank in some places is sloping rock w/ no vegetation. Number of people ard. so walked back. Just below bridge (on right hand side if facing S) is small tributary. Walked up away. is shallow, narrow. One frog spotted but got away (perhaps we were too tired?). Not sure if was R. boylei or R. muscosa. Stream seems to be in "steps" w/ relatively open areas w/ gentle banks, some grass & smallish rocks & areas of larger rocks &/or fallen logs and thick vegetation growth. Is particular plant which haven't seen before (or something) took sample for later identification: Walked perhaps a 1/4 mi or less upstream. Several were heard to jump into H2O
