ALBION BASINA TOUCH OF NATUREIt is said that there are more different varieties of wild flowers growing here than in any other area of similar size in the United States. At this high elevation, alpine and sub-alpine plants are found, which do not occur on the foothills or lower in the canyon. But many of the plants which do live lower down, also bloom here. (Only they bloom later here than they do at the lower elevations.) So this basin is a meeting place of several different habitats. Below are links to lists and sketches of some of the plants and wildlife that might be seen by a person visiting the area.
