We present temperature and field dependent heat capacity and magnetization data taken at temperatures down to 50 mK and in an applied magnetic field up to 11.5 Tesla for YbAgGe, a heavy-fermion compound with a field induced quantum critical point. These data clearly indicate that the same electronic degrees of freedom are responsible for the features seen in both specific heat and magnetization data. In addition, they further refine the different boundaries suggested for the H - T phase diagram of YbAgGe through previous, magneto-transport measurements, and allow for further understanding of different phases on the H - T phase diagram, in particular, clearly disconnecting the field-induced quantum critical point in YbAgGe from any sort of saturation of the Yb moment in higher applied magnetic field.
