Squaw Creek / Bull Run – This should be an excellent lower elevation collection site – mixed pinyon juniper adjacent to a slot canyon, this location is at a slightly lower elevation than Henderson Canyon (about 6100 feet) but is on a limestone layer (Carmel Formation) rather than sandstone, potentially supporting a slightly different group of plants and related species.
Pine Lake – Higher elevation 8500+ feet aspen, pine, spruce fir habitat in Dixie National Forest lands east of Pine Lake recreation area
Tantalus Flats
Cedar Canyon
