Hello from Idaho…  We wrapped up today with our last upland trend site.  The forbs are getting dry and a little hard to identify.  We will be continuing our HAF sites for sage grouse, which we only identify perennial forbs.  These sites are further south in higher elevation and the forbs are still plentiful and fairly easy to id.  Next week we are going to Indian Hot Springs and looking for a special status plant, Epipacits gigantea the common name is chatterbox orchid.  We have to float the Bruneau River to properly scan the entire area along the reach. Looking forward to it, until next time.
