Ravine Salamander Trip

I took John to do some herping in the Ravine Salamanders spots today. My normal spot only produced one that I have documented before. After some searching in that areas we desided to head over to the other spot down the road a piece where I discovered only one last year. We had alot of luck with the 2nd spot and come up with 7 Ravines total with a big suprise to us both was a yearling that was only 3cm in length. We did a little more herping and didnt have as good of luck with anything else. A few frogs chorsing and a N. Dusky salamander.
