The mountain streams have changed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They had become more overgrown with more vegetation right on the banks, not cool rocky raging streams,&#8221; said Kavanaugh, Ph.D.<\/p>\n<p>One spot he documented is Upper Caribou Lake in the Trinity Alps in Northern California. One of Dave&#8217;s students found the beetles at a higher altitude on nearby Thomson Peak.<\/p>\n<p>But the glacier on that mountain, a critical part of the beetle&#8217;s habitat, is breaking up, and that means the beetle species may soon run out of habitat all together.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s already at the top of the mountain and it&#8217;s got nowhere else to go,&#8221; said Kavanaugh, Ph.D.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;ve spent a lot of time in the Trinity Alps, including the Caribou Lakes, and I&#8217;ve climbed Thompson Peak from Grizzly Lake. I haven&#8217;t been around Thompson Peak for quite awhile, so I can&#8217;t speak definitively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you seen any evidence of climate change in the Trinity Alps or Sierra Nevada?
