Itinerary
1 mi. SE Sawtooth Mtn. 4300 ft, Skamania Co., Wash.
July 13
surrounded by forest composed of Western Larch, White fir and Sugar pine with some scrubby under growth. The rock slides in the region are composed of large boulders of angular shape, varying in size from widths of 5 ft. to 1 ft and smaller. The slope is fairly steep, probably around 30°. Some grass grows at the edges of the slides and some in the slide itself. Small piles of this were noted in the rocks and may have been used for food by the pikas.
Decees were abundant but localized to fairly definite spots. Size - round and slightly larger than a BB shot.
Maryhill, 200 ft., Klickitat Co. Wash.
(9:00 P.M.)- Party left locality at Sawtooth Mtn. at 2:30 P.M. and returned to White Salmon, Wash. From here highway 830 was followed along the north side of The Columbia to Maryhill, the present locality.
Arrived at 7:30 P.M. and went out and attempted to set some gopher traps but no fresh workings were found.
