East Kiger Plateu RNA

East Kiger Plateau Research Natural Area (RNA) was established to represent high elevation fescue (Festuca ovina, F. idahoensis, F. scabrella) grasslands. Steens Mountain paintbrush (Castilleja pilosa var. steenensis), Steens Mountain whitlow grass (Draba cusickii var. cusickii), weak-stemmed stonecrop (Sedum debile), foetid sedge (Carex foetida var. vernacula), and Davidson's penstemon (Penstemon davidsonii var. praeteritus) are common plant species found in this RNA.
