LLHG 489 - Follow the Wildflowers

Follow the cascade of wildflower blooms across Northern Utah in this four-session class. We'll begin at Red Butte Garden with a little classroom time, then move into the foothills for a look at spring's first blooms. We'll continue to follow the wildflower bloom each class and will culminate our experience in the subalpine zone of Albion Basin in late July. We'll spend the first part of each class learning about plant families and the plant communities located in the area we'll be visiting. Please bring a notebook to record your findings. The instructor will provide species lists for the wildflowers we are likely to see and a hands lens. Class requires hiking 1 -- 2 miles each class and runs rain or shine.
