9 August 1980 Corkscrew Spring cast. p 6 of this expedition
This spring does not appear to be heavily used
by sheep at this time, although records indicate
that use has been heavy and vegetation different,
in the past. I attempted to set up a camera
about 3-400 yards below the spring, but
was frustrated by a broken connection in
the photocell. Left the camera there, took
photocell home for repair.
On the return trip, checked out Fire Spring (#193)
which has dense growth of Phragmites, some
willow and other vegetation, but no water
that we could find. There are a couple of
little-used trails around this spring. I
believe it is not worth putting in a camera.
Then we proceeded to Hole-in-the-Rock
and New-Hole-in-the-Rock springs. New-
Hole-in-the-Rock is dry. Hole-in-the-Rock
is a hole about 18 inches in diameter in
the floor of a rock wash. It is full of
water, gravel, algae. No sheep sign, some
old coyote sign. Set a camera here, just
in case. Then proceeded to Daylight Spring
which is dry. Then went home.
