Plant Checklist For South Ridge Trail, San Jacinto Mountains

Plant Checklist For South Ridge Trail, San Jacinto Mountains

This is a plant checklist for the South Ridge Trail in traditional family order. See also the Plant Trail Guide, with species presented in order along the trail.
This list includes off-trail species as well as species numbered as being on-trail in the guide, and so the total number of species in this list is larger than the last numbered species in the guide. The plant abundances can also be larger, since they include the number of plants off-trail, as well as the number of plants considered on-trail.
