This week I went out with the botany crew for some vegetation monitoring in the La Sals. Our plots were at nearly 12,000 feet and there were thunderstorms in the vicinity.
Fortunately, they passed us by and we were able to complete the study in one day. The crew pointed out to me the last flowering La Sal Daisy on the mountain (below). Erigeron mancus is endemic to the alpine meadows of the La Sals.
Gorgeous photos!
