Relative position | This occurrence is on the ridge crest (approximate 1,850 feet elevation) on the north side of the headwaters of North Fork, Mosquito Creek. Mosquito Creek flows westward from headwaters in the northern Darby Mountains to Telephone Creek, a tributary to Fish River in McCarthy's Marsh. It is approximately the location of sample localities 5 and 6 of Miller and Grybeck (1973). Gamble (1988) showed these as locations 50 and 51. |
