Boy Scout Tree Trail is a beautiful dark old-growth redwood forest trail. Somewhere in the middle of it, there's a short steep side trail that leads to the eponymous Boy Scout Tree. On that short steep trail, near the Tree itself, I found this little squirmer under a rotten log.

Stebbins classifies the salamanders in this area in a subspecies, P. e. elongatus (Striped Del Norte Salamander).

I initially identified these two salamanders as Speckled Black Salamanders, but Joshua Puhn of northwestherps.com convinced me that they are really Del Norte Salamanders. Thanks Joshua!

I found these two within about thirty feet of each other, one under a small piece of bark and one under a medium-sized log.
