Abstract

Our field season in August 2005 consisted of mapping an area from Hidden Corral in the S. Fork Bitch Creek (which is not in the Grand Teton National Park) to Moose Basin. In addition to mapping and sampling in Moose Basin area we made an important traverse along the head of the cirque around Camp Lake (which lies just west of the Park).
