Aspens are abundant along this stretch of the trail to Mt Moriah. No sign of yellow-bellied marmots despite there being lots of talus slopes on either side of the trail.
On 21 June 1937, Lee Arnold saw a marmot 2 miles south of the survey team's base camp, which was noted as "Hendry Creek, 9,100 ft., 1 1/2 mi. E Mt Moriah, White Pine Co., Nevada". The site of the photos in this iNat observation are probably within a few hundred meters of the location where Arnold saw the marmot.
(Arnold mentioned "scattered aspens beside the creek")
