Like 8484 in every particular (even to the purple tipped keel) save in the color being pink. The pink is a delicate and very beautiful pink, perhaps lavender-pink would hit it. It is certainly a most lovely color. No. 8486. Layia platyglossa (F. & M.) Gray ssp. campestris Keck Very common. Rays yellow, the tips white.

37_19 Apr. 12, 1920 realized that San Jacinto made so noble and lofty a stand in the sky. Seen from other directions he is a fine mountain but from this direction the view is imposing.

Agua Tibia Mts. rise northward. We ask a young Indian-Mexican who comes along the meaning of tibia. He says: "not hot, not cold." So Agua Tibia is the lukewarm water. An American comes along, walking, and we talk with him. He has come down from Palomar Mt. just east. On its higher hollows are some pines. Dutton picks (Cont. p. 22) |
