Today, the plan was to go check the seeds of Clematis pauciflora to make sure they were indeed glabrous and they were.
Starting from Rios Canyon Rd entrance, I headed down and West until a fork in the fire road which led me to a cleared access to the power line route. I thought I had seen this cleared access going all the way to where the seasonal creek goes under Rios Canyon Rd but it did not. I was so close to my destination that I did a little cross country instead of hiking back up and around. Although not recommended, it gave me a chance to see a San Diego Alligator Lizard, a humming bird's nest and no snake.
