NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. The Watershed has one collection of Oxytropis campestris, by Tim Hogan, from the north Cristos, N of California Peak, on “alpine ridge (1998). The geo-reference coordinates make clear that the occurrence falls within the Watershed. This record marks the southernmost reach of the flower’s USA distribution, the end of a population that runs down the central mountains of Colorado from the main range of the flower, which is Wyoming and Montana.
