Album of Pateros Field Trip

Selected photos from the spider collecting field trip to the banks of the Methow River near Pateros, Okanogan County, Washington on 28 April 2007 with Rod Crawford and Larry McTigue. Collecting was a bit sparse, but thanks to a generous helping of luck, a prior sample of 10 species from nearby was upgraded to 22 species.
