The Plants of the Pacific Crest Trail: A Hiker's Guide to Northern California by Dana York and James M. André

On the long days and quiet nights walking the PCT, your most faithful companions will be the flowers, trees, and shrubs at your feet. Blurbs about the ecoregions and plant communities of each trail section preface the book before an extensive guide organized by plant type, color, and anatomy. Every plant species in this guide is accompanied by photos, as well as descriptions of appearance, range, flowering period, and biology.
