Plant Checklists
Our chapter members have created plant lists for several local natural areas, including county parks, regional parks, state parks, and a few trails within the Tahoe National Forest. You will likely find it helpful to print and bring a plant list when visiting one of these natural areas, because you can use it to more easily locate plants and confirm identifications.
See our Local Plant Checklists page to download plant species lists for local natural areas.
