Journal R.E. Johnson 1967 45 June 28 Dutton Ridge, Crater Lake National Park, Oregon (cont.) basis of his records from Lolo Rock. June 29 Mt. Scott, Crater Lake National Park, Oregon (8926) This is the highest peak in the park, but it lies 2 1/2 miles east of the Rim and apparently has a somewhat different microclimate. Most of the mtn is timbered, but there is a west or nw facing cirque of scree with a few Nw facing cliffs and lots of snow below them. On the se corner of the peak is a n-s running cliff overlooking snow to the east. Considering the other places rosy where finches have been seen in the park, these locations look adequate, though snow margins are less common & cliffs aren't as high. No Rosy Finches were seen however. Rock Wrens were heard on the east & west faces & Mtn Bluebirds were seen on the west ridge of cliffs. (Farmer saw Rosy Finch on Aug 25, 1948 on Mt. Scott). June 29 Cloudcap, Crater Lake National Park, Oregon Hiked from Rim Rd north cross country to road on (8070) Cloudcap & vicinity. Saw no birds & habitat seems inappropriate for Rosy Finches. Few snow- meadow borders, considerable timber, and a large west facing dry meadow with many flowers. No cliffs in view from the top, they do occur down- slope to the west. A Townsend Solitaire singing
