Album of Teanaway River Field Trip

Taking a break from the Elwha River project, Laurel and I got out from under the drizzle in sunny eastern Washington. The 18-species sample from near Swauk Prairie Cemetery was supplemented by as many more from riparian habitats along the lower Teanaway River. Photos by Laurel Ramseyer and Rod Crawford.
