Christmas, July. 1965 28 Journal 21 June Black Canyon, 3,100 ft., Spring Witus, Clark Coy, Decuda Camp, also the aspen are large, not stunted as at Hidden Forest. Perhaps (?) talus aspen are naturally "stunted" where as, evening stream beds can support trees up to 15 ft. high. Also of interest, the springs here do not have aspen groves! This canyon is one of the worst old logging messes I have seen. Logs, stumps & slash everywhere. The entire area of the canyon bottom (except for a few are spots such as this camp site) has a substrate of stream worn cobbles & gravel - often with large scars due to heavy equipment dragging logs, a few places of ice. There is no evidence of flooding since this logging. Also, there is no direct evidence of the site of the lumbering hq. or mill. Not many swags in canyon. At last - game trails, which also seem to be used as horse trails. There is considerable shoe of horses here - some recent, straw, etc. at this camp site. Saw few deer tracks - but no fresh sign over an abundance. When walking down canyon - returning from a.m. hunt noticed tracks in road bed which could only have been made by turkeys! Red saw 4! This is better than the del birds. Clear, hot during mid-day. Prairie-wills don't come in to calls in this range as they did in the Sheep Range. Am being distracted by what seems to be a chipmunk call unique to this range - it sounds like the "chuck" of a game
