Over mountain east of Salem & back to Roanoke via U.S. 221.
U.S. 11 to Buchanan & Va 43 to Peaks of Otter. Dirt rd
across the James River back to U.S 11 & to beyond. Natural
Bridge for the night. A few calendulaceum near Roanoke but
got a good transect down Mt Broad Top from roseum into
nudiflorum. Quite a hike up the mountain! Took 5 hrs to
run the transect! Philadelphia gets later & later.
Roseum is very glandular on the top of the mountain.
