I am working on a new book "California Desert Plants" with Phil Rundel. While the book is almost done, we are short on landscape scale photos of the Mojave, Sonoran, and Great Basin in California. Do you have images to contribute? Shoot me an email mk@backcountrypress.com
I am slowly learning about some of the shortfalls my training as a Wester Scientist has had on my ability to interpret vegetation communities of the Klamath Mountains. I visited the Southern Siskiyous to test my new understandings. michaelkauffmann.net/2021/05…
