NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. For Draba nemorosa there are 6 records by differenct collectors in the Las Garitas, in Saguache Co (1935-2003). Another location is near Wagon Wheel Gap. The eighth record is from San Juan Co on the Divide trail (1994), the only high-elevation location for this species in the Watershed. Opinions differ as to whether it is native or exotic. The Watershed locations, and a single collection from Taos Co in New Mexico, are at the southeastern corner of the USA distribution, which covers all Western states and the northern Great Plains.
