[[underline]] Glendale [[/underline]]  

timbered and the cold slopes seem to be all Canadian zone while the warm slopes & bottoms are Transition or a mixture of the two. We followed up Glendale Creek to the head of the pipe line, half a mile at least in N.E. gulch in a beautiful forest of Pseudotsuga and Abies loweana, with [[strikethrough]] as [[/strikethrough]] scattered Taxus [[space]], Castanopsis chrysophylla trees, Quercus densiflora, Alnus [[space]], and a few Acer macrophyllum for timber. The smaller shrubs & plants are Vaccinium microphyllum? (tall), V. ovatum, Gaultheria shallon, Berberis nervosa, Linnea borealis, Ceanothus velutinus (big, 10 feet high), Rubus nutkanus & leucoderma?, and lots of ferns, moss and sorrel.

The [[underline]] Transition zone [[/underline]] species in the valley are Quercus kellogi, Q. chrysolepis (one tree only), Pinus ponderosa (a few), P. lambertiana (a few), Libocedrus decurrens (a few), Arbutus, Acer macrophyllum, Acer [[space]] (little leaf), Populus trichocarpa, and Cornus nuttalli.

A trace of Upper Sonoran seems to have gone.
