The range west of Hoopah Valley between Supply Creek canyon and Redwood Creek is 3,400 feet in altitude; in other words, 3,000 feet above Hoopah Valley. This range is covered with a rather dense forest mainly of Douglas Fir, more or less mixed on the warmer slope with Ponderosa and Sugar Pines and Black, White, and Live Oaks, among which Madrones, Chinquapins, and Cedars occur. On the slope east of Hoopah Valley the splendid _Rhododendron californicum_ occurs. Here also two species of _Cornus_, _nuttalli_ and the black-berried _sessilis_, were seen, and in a gulch nearby we found the rather rare Lawson Cypress. On this range at an altitude of 3,250 feet is a stone pile around a post said to mark the west boundary of Hoopah Reservation. On this same range the coast Plume Fern is common and the ground over a considerable area is carpeted with delicate _Vancouveria hexandra_. At Redwood Creek we saw the beautiful ringed tail of a _Bassariscus_, which animal is said to be common here. The Redwood (_Sequoia sempervirens_) common along the coast pushes up Redwood River to a point about two miles below the Bair ranch. The man at the ranch, W. F. Boyce, told me that during the previous year he had trapped in the region 32 Black Bear, 21 Coyotes, numerous Wildcats, 3 Panthers, and one Badger, besides killing any number of deer. Other mammals said to occur here in addition to Deer are Gray Fox, Otter, Fisher, Marten, Mink, big and little Skunks (_Mephitis_ and _Spilogale_) in addition to the Ring-tail _Bassariscus_, here called kil-how'^{ch}. One of the commonest trees in Redwood Valley is the Tan Oak (_Lithocarpus densiflora_), the bark of which is used for tanning. Madrones also are common, many of them four feet or more in diameter. The rare Cypress (_Chamaecyparis lawsoniana_) also occurs here but Douglas Fir is not only the dominant tree but grows to large size, thousands of them reaching diameters of five to seven feet. VILLAGES Although the information on Hupa villages comes from extremely diverse sources, there appears to be fair agreement among them. The basic material comes from Goddard (1903), and this is for the most part confirmed by Merriam and Curtis (1924, Vol. 13). In fact, Curtis' data coincide so closely with Goddard's that they may have been derived from Goddard's report. However, a few of Curtis' facts do not appear in Goddard's work so we are probably justified in considering them primary.
