Budding Botanist Field Trip

Barbershop Canyon sits on the edge of the Mogollon Rim in Northern Arizona. This place is an amazing harbor of biodiversity that could be designated by the Forest Service as a wilderness. The Grand Canyon Trust is part of a partnership to document the botanical diversity in this remarkable area. This field trip was also the first training opportunity for a massive statewide volunteer effort to document plant diversity in Arizona (the Plant Atlas of Arizona Project-PAPAZ). Here is the short film of our small group excursion to Dane Spring. Thanks to everyone that made this weekend very productive with their help!
