Cantu, Blais 1972 Journal Highland Range, Lincoln Co., Nev. May 17 At the junction of the road leading to Connor Springs and that continuing up Anderson Valley, Mr. Johnson called in a Solitary Vireo and a Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher. I saw a female Broad- tailed Hummingbird land in a low brush at Pine Springs. I also saw a Green-tailed Towhee on the trail to Connor Springs, as well as hearing the call of a Black-throated Gray Wadler. After having lunch at 11:00 am, we drove up a road leading up Anderson Valley, but not indicated on the map to about the 4,000 feet level. We proceeded on foot to the south dome of Highland Peak, at 9365 ft. At about the 7900 ft level firs began to be common, and by 4500 ft, the only trees were firs, all standing about 25 ft. tall. Pinecone Pines, of similar height, were seen starting at about 9,000 ft, and they were abundant at the summit. A complex of buildings belonging to the Dept. of Interior and the Atomic Energy Commission occupied various knolls at the summit. The south-west facing slope at this altitude were covered by snow only and a few Pinyon.
