Notes
This really was a Dunn's Salamander. It decided to make a break for it just as I took the picture, and disappeared down a crevice. The photo is kind of hopeless, but I'm confident about the ID. It was classic P. dunni, with a broken gold dorsal stripe that didn't go all the way to the end of the tail. I've seen them at this location before.
