I hiked along the east side of the road in the river basin at two stops a few miles apart.
I am unsure whether the majority of the Icaricia were Lupines or Acmon Blues, I did see some dark females that I assume were Acmon Blue.
Admin- this is the complete list, sorry for my fat fingers submitting the other lists accidentally.
