When I first read the field notes of Annie Alexander and Louise Kellogg, I was fascinated by the descriptions they wrote about the places they went and the plants and animals they found there. By publishing my field notes on the Internet I hope to follow a little bit in their tradition. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The route through these little hills, as described in Reynolds & Miller (2010) is from north to south. I did it from south to north, so I went down this little canyon, If you're following the field trip guide, you'll come up the little canyon.

If you're following the route in reverse order, i.e., from south to north, it can be hard to find the route down off the bluff. There are three routes north. The westernmost dead ends at a fine viewpoint. The easternmost goes into the housing development. Take the middle route shown here.
