Journal 59 R.E. Johnson 1967 July 4 Fish Lake to summit of Steens Mtns, Harney Co., Oregon (cont) for L.T. littorals! Several others were seen but it was too late to collect them. This ridge & the next one west are loaded with snow & much more alpine than the higher main ridge to the east. They hardly show on existing maps. These 2 birds were collected at 8900 ft. at the headwaters of Indian Creek July 5 summit Steens Mtns, Harney Co., Oregon hazy clouds, cool until moon, wind from west. Returned to head of Indian Creek but did not find any Rosy Finches. Hiked back & forth over upper Indian Creek taking pictures of carpets of Buttercup & Marsh Marigold - Carthae Globe flower (Trollius) & small lakes. Then hiked out the ridge forming the south wall of Indian Creek, then backtracked & went south on the ridge forming the west ridge of the west fork of Wildhorse Creek. The north side of the former & east side of the latter have ciffs & snow, whereas the opposite sides are rounded & covered with low sagebrush. I saw no rosy Finches. I circled back north, then east around their head of west fork of Wildhorse Creek (I had previously walked the ridge above, now I hiked on the slopes of the ridger toward the bottom). On the head of the canyon (so facing) I heard a rosy Finch churrp. Later (4:30PM) I saw a finch fly across canyon (W to E). No Rosy Finches were
