Although I was taking a day off, I decided to try and record some birds around 5 am before the highway traffic near Alturas began to pick up. I had no luck until I hit the ski area road to the Cedar Pass ski resort. It made Pat’s Peak look gi-normous. I recorded several birds there and moved on to Fort Bidwell about 25 miles north of Cedarville.
