1 Vascular Plants of the Crooked Creek Area Mary DeDeckerl 1t has never been easy to know the White-Inyo Range intimately. Not only is it the highest range in the Great Basin, but its precipitous canyons on all sides have made access difficult. Some canyons carry perennial streams,but far more of the water courses are dry. There are no significant bodies of water to lure visitors or, happily, to tempt development. The earliest explorers were prospectors. The first roads and trails were built for access to mine sites. Sheepherders followed soon after, keeping their flocks on the open slopes of the higher elevations all summer long. There was not enough large game to make it a popular hunting region. It is probable that the lack of water, more than any other factor, saved the natural values from exploitation. There were extensive meadows and riparian stringers, however, which have been utilized for grazing cattle until the present time. It was far too early for realization that the plant lifeof the White-Inyo Range would make the White Mountains famous. The sparse forests of weathered trees, minute annuals, and hardy little perennials did not impress the few people who reached the higher elevations. Place names were mostly derived from the mining and sheepgrazing periods. It was not until 1913that the United States Geological Survey sent teams of surveyors to complete the topographicmapping of the White Mountains. The surveyorsarrived in Bishop on July 4th of that year. There were two U.S.Geological Survey teams: one to do the lower elevations along the east side of the White-Inyo Range, and one to work the higher elevations along the crest of the range. Their assignment was to determine elevations and place bench marks. One member of the "high team" was Perry Mulholland, eldest son of William Mulholland of Los Angeles aqueduct fame. He was one of two surveyors of that party. They were supported by a packer and a cook. Although their equipment and supplies were carried by mules, ascents of the peaks were done on foot. In a letter home, dated September 12,1913, Perry Mulholland wrote that he had worn out one pair of shoes, a pair of boots, and was nearly barefoot before new boots arrived. His letters home described the harsh conditions under which they worked. That team had considered itself fortunate to be working the high country where they would escape the summeis heat, but by the time they had endured weeks of cold, wet weather, they longed for some of that warmth. They labored in rain, including a cloudburst and hail (fiveinches of it in one storm; an impressivescene, but very cold). A snow flurry drove them back from their first attempt on White Mountain Peak. He mentioned seeinga few Bighorn Sheep, and even a herd of wild horses that was runningfree that long ago. But he made no comments on the plant life. Their first camp was made at Prospector Meadow, very near the present WMRS Crooked Creek facilities site. They worked northward from there until the project was completed about November 7, That was close to the date that his father was celebrating completion of the Los Angeles aqueduct. 140Pavilion Street, HCR 67, Box 35, Independence, California
2 100-MARY DEDECKER By the turn of the century, California botanists had become aware of the White Mountains. During the next twenty years such well-known names as W. L. Jepson, A. C. Shelton, and Roxanna Ferris appeared in collections from those mountains. Then came Victor Duran, a graduate student at the University of California, Berkeley, who was studying under Dr. Jepson. He made extensive collections throughout the range from 1926 to 1933, working toward a complete floristic study. Unfortunately, that goal was abandoned when his career took a turn in another direction. Nevertheless, his work provided a valuable base for any later botanical project. The first published flora, A Flora of the White Mountains, California and Nevada, by R M. Lloyd and R. S. Mitchell, was published by the University of California Press in The floristic portion was taken largely from Duran's records. While the work was far from a complete compilation of the flora of that complex range, it was a significant beginning. Its greatest value is in its introductory chapters on plant communities, phytogeography and comparative floristics, and guide to the geology. Since that time, the White Mountains have become famous as the site of the ancient Bristlecone Pine (Pinus longaeva). Growing recognition of the contrast between the flora which occurs on dolomite and that which is found on granite or weakly metamorphosed sedimentary rock has resulted in an irresistible fascination for the botanical world. The WMRS Crooked Creek facilities are located within thesagehen Flat pluton, so most plant species in the vicinity are those adapted to thrive on granitic soils. Some areas of dolomite of the Wyman Formation have persisted, however, and may be identified by the plants which thrive there. These include the famous Bristlecone Pine, Pinus longaeva. An excellent displayof such species occurs on a slopejust beyond the gate, 0.6 k m (0.4 mi) down the road from the facilities. Meadow and wetland species occur alongthe courseof Crooked Creek and on flats which do not drain rapidly. All together, the flora surrounding the facilities site is rich and varied. Its pristinenaturehas been altered to some extent by grazing cattle. It is best to observe the early-blooming plants before the cattle arrive in early summer. One may not find the late-blooming species once the cattle begin grazing. The Natural History of the White-lnyo Range, Eastern California, published by the University of California Press in 1991considers the plant zones, trees, and shrubs and flowering plants of the region. Many of the species listed below are figured in that volume. Following is a list of plants that occur within about one mile of the Crooked Creek facilities. It is arranged by families in alphabetical order. The list of plants includes ferns, pine and juniper trees, and monocotyledons, as well as dicotyledons.
