- excellent deer trail leading up hill.
The summit of the island consists
of sphagnum muskeg fairly heavily
wooded with stunted trees. The
dominant species are Pinus contorta [underlined]
+ Chamaecyparis [underlined] but Tsuga heterophylla [underlined]
Thuja + Taxus are present in
fair abundance. Gaultheria is the
dominant shrub + should probably
be grouped with the other 2
dominants - Grass [word crossed out] other shrubs are
Ledum, Kalmia, Menziesia + Vaccinium
parvifolium,[underlined] none of them abundant
but all fairly common. Empetrum [underlined]
Cornus canadensis [underlined], Pteris aquilina (scarce)
Struthiop [word crossed out] Hard fern + a sedge
+ a rush were noted. Lysihiton [Lysichiton]
in the muck holes. Sphagnum
forms large mounds.
Mammal sign consisted of deer
beds + trails in plenty + shrew
tracks + burrows in small
numbers. The deer probably go up
there to sun themselves as it is
almost the only part of the island
exposed to the sun.
Only birds heard were 1 flicker
+ some golden crowned kinglets.
Nothing noteworthy seen today.
