Handbook to idaho's sawtooth country flora - Vizgirdas, Ray S., Rey-Vizgirdas, Edna M.

Every year, tens of thousands of people adventurers, backpackers, hunters, and vacationers are drawn to the Sawtooth Wilderness and National Recreation Area. They come to enjoy the spectacular scenery and to experience a more rugged life style away from the comforts of city life. As would be expected, this change almost always has a refreshing and revitalizing effect on a person's physical and mental state that many become addicted to the "wilderness experience." This book has been written for the outdoor enthusiast who becomes interested in the natural history, ecology, and ethnobotany of the plant life that may be encountered in the forests, high elevations, and along the trails. More than 250 species of plants are discussed.
