Santa Cruz Mountains Because of increased elevation and humidity (due to fog), there's a number of reptiles and amphibians that can be found in the mountains in August.

Flat Coast

Skinny Salamander
| Due to the warm, dry conditions, salamanders were hard to find on this trip, but we did find a couple of Slender Salamanders. 
Captured Coast
| Lenny caught a Coast Garter Snake. 
Field Studies
| I try to identify a snake skin while Zach tries to figure out what punctured his finger. 
Do You Like American Music?
| We like all kinds of music (Zach is the vocalist in an all-Japanese punk rock band). |
