A CHECKLIST OF THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF SCOTT MOUNTAIN (SISKIYOU & TRINITY COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA) James P. Smith, Jr. & John O. Sawyer, Jr. † Department of Biological Sciences Humboldt State University Arcata, California Third Edition – 16 April 2019 Scott Mountain is located about 17 miles southeast of Picea breweriana Etna in the Klamath and Shasta-Trinity National Pinus balfouriana Forests. Its summit along State Route 3 (5413 ft) is Pinus contorta var. murryana near the Scott Mountain Campground (N 41.2760, W Pinus jeffreyi -122.6978). The peak itself is at 6829 ft. The area Pinus monticola has long been a popular site for botanists. In 1880, Pinus ponderosa George Engelmann collected a number of plants there, Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii including one that would be named after him, Tsuga mertensiana Lomatium engelmannii.

This booklet was prepared with funds from the Forest Service Celebrating Wildflowers program, whose goals are to serve our nation by introducing the American public to the aesthetic, recreational, biological, ecological, medicinal, and economic values of our native botanical resources. By becoming more thoroughly acquainted with local plants and their multiple values, we hope to consequently in- crease awareness and understanding of the Forest Service’s management undertakings regarding plants, including our rare plant conservation programs, invasive plant man- agement programs, native plant materials programs, and botanical research initiatives. This booklet is a trial booklet whose purpose, as part of the Celebrating Wildflowers program (as above explained), is to increase awareness of local plants. The Modoc NF Botany program earnestly welcomes your feedback; whether you found the book help- ful or not, if there were too many plants represented or too few, if the information was useful to you or if there is more useful information that could be added, or any other comments or concerns. Thank you. Forest J. R. Gauna Asst.

Executive Summary This survey was a continuation of several years of rare plant survey on San Juan Public Lands. Funding for the project was provided by San Juan National Forest and the San Juan Resource Area of the Bureau of Land Management. Previous rare plant surveys on San Juan Public Lands by CNHP were conducted in conjunction with county wide surveys of La Plata, Archuleta, San Juan and San Miguel counties, with partial funding from Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO); and in 2004, public lands only in Dolores and Montezuma counties, funded entirely by the San Juan Public Lands. Funding for 2005 was again provided by San Juan Public Lands. The primary emphases for field work in 2005 were: 1. revisit and update information on rare plant occurrences of agency sensitive species in the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) database that were last observed prior to 2000, in order to have the most current information available for informing the revision of the Resource Management Plan for the San Juan Public Lands (BLM and San Juan National Forest); 2.
