Mountain Home Preserve eBird Monitoring Project
Mountain Home Ridge
Help monitor two populations of Wenatchee Mountains Checker-mallow (Sidalcea oregana var. calva), a native plant with a very limited natural range. In 2014, CDLT received funding from the USFW to establish new populations of this plant by planting of nursery-grown seedlings at Mountain Home. Annually, CDLT monitors the plants.
Many dates from late April to July. Controlling over 20 species of noxious weeds is one of our toughest stewardship duties. Timing of weed control treatments depends on stage of plant growth and favorable weather conditions so we keep a flexible schedule.
Explore wildflowers, birds, animal tracks, geology and more on this evening walk at our Mountain Home Property above Leavenworth. This trip will be led by CDLT Conservation Fellow Susan Ballinger, who makes monthly visits to Mountain Home to record bird use. Beautiful views, wildlife, and the evening light – don’t miss this trip!
