Along the ridges, slopes and canyons of the Siskiyou Crest, from Mt. Ashland to the Smith River, 31 designated Botanical Areas recognize concentrations of rare species and plant communities. These Botanical Areas form a network of biodiversity hotspots along the California-Oregon border and provide habitat connectivity between the Cascades and the Coast Range. Luke Ruediger and Suzie Savioe (of the Siskiyou Crest Coalition) will take you on a photographic exploration, highlighting many of the rare and endemic species that grow in each area. Luke and Suzie are volunteers and supporters of the Siskiyou Crest Coalition.
