Hi everyone,<\/p>\n

A lot has gone on since my last blog entry. Many seeds have been collected \u2013 both SOS and local restoration collections \u2013 and many cows have been counted! Most of our time has been spent on SOS collections. We\u2019ve done lots of rangeland health and utilization assessments and plot readings using belt transects and gap intercept measurements. Monitoring of rangeland (i.e. looking for trespassed cattle and counting and getting brands; checking the success\/failure of reservoirs and presence of noxious weeds) is also a common weekly task. I\u2019ve also done several rare plant surveys, which I really enjoy. We also conducted a plant inventory for a large riparian area, which was really fun and I\u2019m sure we\u2019ll return there for a wild rose collection or for further monitoring\/inventory.\u00a0One day was spent assisting the archeology crew in a survey, and soon we\u2019ll participate in a raptor survey and possibly participate in a pika survey during the \u2018pika blitz\u2019<\/p>\n
