    California Desert Plants: Ecology and Diversity

    January 17, 2024 by Paul Wilson

    Wednesday – February 14

    The desert areas of California include the northwestern portion of the Sonoran Desert, the largest part of the Mojave Desert, and the western margin of the Great Basin. Michael Kauffmann, co-author of California Desert Plants (Backcountry Press 2022) will take us on a journey to explore these vast and intimate desert landscapes through their diverse, colorful, and dynamic flora.
