Description
Our site was on the other side of the canyon where we were dropped off about a half a mile into the trees. The main plants we saw were Mountain Mahogany, cactus, white sage, and red willow. They were the main plants that made up our trail. We did not see many animals but we did see Allghenny Mound ants, a lizard, and a butterfly.

pictures
This picture shows the cacti that starts at the top of this hill and reaches the bottom
This picture shows the bottom of a rock with green stuff under it, which is odd because there was no grass anywhere near it
It may be tough to see but there are Allgheny Mound ants running all over this rock
This is a very strange image of what seems to be either a broken tree trunk or a large broken branch that is launched into the side of a hill
Observation (Nino)
Today it is 75 degrees Fahrenheit in a clear sky sunny day at 11:00
11:05 we spot poison oak
11:15 we come across gopher holes and a lizard runs by us
11:32 we find a large amount of cacti that grows over a hill
11:47 we find a strange rock with green stuff at the bottom of it
12:01 I tip a rock over and find a large amount of ants
At the end of the day it is 79 degrees Fahrenheit and it is still clear skies with the sun out.
