This is the 3rd edition of the Cottonwood Canyon Foundation’s Wildflower Guidebook, compiled after years of taking photos, adding species, and writing plant descriptions.

Wildflowers of the Cottonwood Canyons, by botanist Tim Remkes, contains beautiful color photos of 192 species of forbs, shrubs, and trees. It includes native, non-native, and invasive species in the Wasatch, too! Finally, the book is chock-full of fun and interesting facts about the plants commonly seen in the Cottonwood Canyons. Proceeds support local stewardship and education programs in the Cottonwood Canyons.

You do not want to be without this guide on your hikes in the Wasatch. How many times have you stumbled upon a cool flower only to find you are without cell service and your best guidebook doesn’t have anything remotely similar to your specimen? Let CCF’s guidebook be your go-to. Wildflowers of the Cottonwood Canyons is available to purchase at REI stores in the Salt Lake City area.
