4_136 Carrol Creek, up The shrubs which make up the "Sage-brush" look so much alike at this season that it is difficult to distinguish species. (The common shade tree in all this region is Locust. Populus trichocarpa is also planted. Mr. Baxter has some fine trees.) At the Carrol Creek camp then are remains of a settler's ranch; locust trees, wire fence, some cleared land, etc. What a spirit to select this for ahome. Or perhaps lack of a spirit. |
4_137 The Hockett Trail, July 20 Pinus monophylla on the lower hills, low round rather dense habit of the tree makes them look to my eye singularly like live oak scrub in some parts of the North Coast Range. All the mountain sides are covered with it. No other tree. It seems as if we had been out a very long time. Every day bring something new and strange, some incident or accident. When we had been on the trail a week I had the sensation of having been out a month. |
