Cobirders,
I thought that I would add that the "beetle kill" area as it was referred to by Andy is most likely attributable to Western Spruce Budworm. The large stand of dead defoliated trees is comprised of Douglas-fir while the Ponderosa Pines in the immediate vicinity remain in healthy condition. I visited this location on Saturday morning but had no luck with the American Three-toed so it is nice to know that they are indeed still in the area. There are also Williamson's Sapsuckers drumming in the stand across the road to the south.
