Event Description:
|
Besides Columbine, Chokecherry, and Blue Spruce, there are hundreds of interesting plants in the Rocky Mountains! Do you want to know how to identify flowers, shrubs, and trees? This course includes short classroom sessions followed by field excursions to the montane, subalpine, and alpine life zones in Rocky Mountain National Park to learn about plants and their families. We will look at plants and use hand lenses to reveal structural details and identify specific plants. Field trips include hikes from 7,500 to 12,000 feet above sea level in variable weather conditions. If you want to know more about plants, and develop techniques to identify them, this class is for you.
