The Colorado Alpine EcoFlora Project is a community-science botany project powered by iNaturalist, the free, easy-to-use nature identification app. Everyone is welcome to join!
The two goals of this project are to:
- Increase awareness of and appreciation for alpine plants in Colorado, engage the public, and empower the next generation of botanists.
- Obtain research-grade observational data from around the state that will help us understand distributions of alpine plants, their phenologies, and even help us identify some areas where we should focus our conservation efforts.
