Natural heritage inventory of significant animals and plants and classification of riparian plant associations, Timpas and Kim Grazing Districts

Abstract

In 1995, the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) joined efforts through a Challenge Cost-Share Agreement with the Pike and San Isabel National Forests to conduct a Natural Heritage Inventory and concurrently to inventory and classify riparian and wetland plant associations on the Timpas and Kim Districts of the Comanche National Grassland. The Natural Heritage Inventory and the riparian inventory were conducted independently. The data are synthesized in this report to promote the understanding of what are inseparable aspects of the Comanche National Grasslands.
