Clients: Northern California Resource Center (NCRC), Shasta-Trinity National Forest
SBS working in collaboration with Northern California Resource Center, conducted botanical surveys in multiple projects within the upper South Fork Sacramento watershed of the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. Our botanists conducted surveys in remote and front-country areas where endemic and special status plant populations occur in an area of complex geology and high public recreation use. SBS crews mapped large streamside stands of Port Orford Cedar, monitored the insectivorous roundleaf sundew (Drosera rotundifolia) at high elevation lakes, and documented new populations of Trinity buckwheat (Eriogonum alpinum) and Siskiyou willowherb (Epilobium siskiyouense) on serpentine ridgelines.
