  • 151 Journal. the running. Okanagan Falls. July 16/51 [1951] Spent large part of today on the hill behind (E [east] of) Vasseaux Lake working on the sheep range. At the higher elevation the range is poor on the drier sites with spear grass Bromus tectorum [inserted above] (oat grass) dominant + useless as food as it has almost no vegetative growth In the more moist sites there is a good stand of Agropyron inerme with 50% + carryover. Along the road to McIntyre Canyon found a good Stipa [underlined] range, awns mostly shed. Ok. [Okanagan] Falls. July 17/51 [1951] In the field at 6:30 this morning + laid off at noon. Very hot- up to 100 in the shade at Oliver. Saw 10 [female symbol] + 9 lamb sheep on N [north] bluff at Vasseaux Later drove down to outlet of McIntyre Creek + hiked up the canyon about a mile. Then climbed out on N [north] side + came back over the ridges. Found a colony of about 12 prs [pairs] white-throated swifts in first big cliff of Canyon. Plenty of deer + sheep sign on bluffs, but almost no cattle chips. Horse dropping now numerous. Marginalia: Plantago hookeriana small silky headed animal.
